Jordan Manalili
Co-Camp Director
Jordan Manalili will be co-directing this camp.
Jordan, originally from Port Charlotte, Florida, now calls Tampa home. Her lacrosse journey began in 2012, and she's been sharing her passion for lacrosse as a coach since 2015. She began coaching in the Bay Area in 2017, where her expertise has spanned all levels, from middle school to high school. Jordan spent over 5 years developing talent for teams like Tampa Tribe, Tampa Titans, Wiregrass Ranch High School, Port Charlotte High School, and Lakeland High School. For the past 3 years, she's focused on the collegiate level, and currently serves as the head coach of the USF Women's Club Lacrosse team.
A dedicated defender on the field, Jordan's coaching philosophy emphasizes an aggressive, turnover-focused style. "Defense doesn't mean passive," she says, instilling in her players the belief that they can "change the tide" from their side of the field.
Beyond coaching, Jordan is deeply involved in the lacrosse community. She's the co-founder of the Tampa Bay Sirens women's league and plays for the Philippines Lacrosse Association in heritage events. Her dedication to lacrosse took her on the road for half of last year, competing in tournaments across the country, including the Lake Placid Tournament and the Heritage Cup. "Lacrosse takes up every second of my free time," she admits, "but I wouldn't have it any other way."
