WHAT FAMILIES SAY ABOUT Xcelerate Nike Boys Lacrosse Camp at UNC Charlotte
35 Reviews
We were extremely happy with your camp. Our son Jordan was very happy with the coaching and finished the camp with a new enthusiasm for the sport. We will be back next year!
Overall my son enjoyed the camp very much. He learned a lot and was able to improve his game. He was luck enough to go with 5 of his buddies, so it was an overly cool experience because of that. They all learned and got to hang with their buddies.
My son loved this camp. It was high energy and the coaches were great. He learned a lot about the game. We will definitely be back next year. Thanks again Nike!
The coaches were positive and uplifting. They provided an atmosphere with knowledge and passion that grew the love of the game. In the words of my son, “I had the time of my life at this camp!”
My son enjoyed the camp so much he wish it was longer. The camp was run well and UNCC was the perfect place for the camp. My son improved his skills and can't wait to attend next years camp.
This was by far my son's best lacrosse camp. All my son could talk about was how he was able to improve his skills.
The group was relatively small compared to another camp I have attended. This made the coaches more available and more oppoetunities for one-on-one time and personal conversation with coaches. I loved the pre-camp clinic on shooting and dodging and was abel to refine some of my skills even in that short amount of time. I look forward to next year!
My son had a blast at camp. He went with 8 other boys from his school. Of course he loved the fact that he got to stay in dorms. However, he loved the daily sessions more. He said he learned a lot and had a great time!
I would send my child everyday to this camp. They were so great with my son. He enjoy every bit of it. Wonderful. He learned so much. Coaches were really upbeat and the facilities were great!
Connor couldn't stop talking about how awesome the coaches were and how he can't wait to come back next year! Kudos to you and all your guys. What a great program!
I had an awesome time at this Nike LAX camp. We were always active and learning, there was very little down time. All of the coaches were awesome. Each one took the time to know my name and help. After every shift and every drill the coaches had feedback and ways to help me improve. They were always paying attention and always tring to help me get better. It was an awesome experience.
My son had a fabulous time and feels that he has improved his game! Thanks for all your hard work and for providing an opportunity for our southern boys to experience LAX camp! Sincerely, one very happy mom and son
My son loved this camp. It was high energy and the coaches were great. He learned a lot about the game. We will definitely be back next year. Thanks again Nike!
Though it might not be as high-profile as other camps, but it was instructive, personal, and informative. This camp is exactly what it's meant to be, an enjoyable learning experience for people who love lacrosse.

For my son's first LAX overnight camp experience, he loved it! He was very impressed with the skills of the camp instructors.
Knowing that your staff took good care of them (especially William who at 10 yrs was one of the youngest) made the camp a winner for my wife and I. Thanks for giving my boys the chance to attend an outstanding program.

Kids fell in love with the sport even more. Great chance for them to practice independence.
My son really enjoyed his coach
My son loved the lacrosse, the food, and the staff
Maximus enjoyed camp and learned a lot. He was most excited about being given a stick head because he was coachable.
The best lacrosse camp my son has been to. He was so excited to come home and apply everything he had learned. My only complaint was that it was just for a week!
My son truely enjoyed working with the coaches and being in an environment that was all about lacrosse. As a fairly new player this was just what he needed to get excited about the game. Our only complaint is that the campus is spread out and the walk from the dorms to the field can be a bit long. Overall this camp was awesome!!
