June 22, 2023: my daughter enjoyed playing Lacrosse for full day sessions. The coaches and director were friendly and ran an amazing camp. So happy mny daughter said she would like to go back next year.
-
July 1, 2022: The director was phenomenal. She took both of my daughter's aside to help them with specific skills. She did this for everyone. There were a lot of girls at the camp and she made it feel small and personal. It could have easily been the other way around.
-
July 1, 2022: The highlight was hearing my daughter's enthusiasm regarding what she learned. I loved that she got a chance to experience dorm life and have a college experience. She was excited about what she learned, and she said she loved the schedule. It was hectic, and she loved it.
-
June 22, 2023: My daughter had an amazing time and was so sad to leave. She is super excited about her new skills but she is mostly excited about the new community of friends she has built. She is a goalie and I was so excited to hear that all of the goalies now have a text thread so they can reach out at tournaments to see who is there. She came away more confident with better skills and a great group of friends.
-
June 22, 2023: The highlight was Courtney. We have done this camp for three years and this year my daughter got sick and had to leave. Courtney was really responsive and helpful with my daughter. My other daughter told me that Courtney will walk around to each group and pull girls out individually to help them with specific skills. She is so kind and loves what she does. It's evident in the performance and enthusiasm of the campers! We will for sure do this camp next year. It has become our tradition.
