Enjoyed it all!
July 20, 2017: My daughter was especially excited to learn new skills and strategies. She wanted more of a personal experience and after asking a couple of coaches specific areas for her own personal development, she got some really good advice and suggestions. She did very much enjoy the camp activities, the other campers, and playing with girls of various ability and skill level. The facilities were excellent and the coaches were all very pleasant and nice to everyone.

Opened up a world of possibilities!
As a player from a small town, my opportunities for lacrosse are limited. This camp, however, opened up a world of possibilities. Not only did I improve my game play, but I had the chance to meet college coaches and learn about the recruiting process. I would highly recommend this camp to players of ALL skill levels.

Thank you!!
For middle school girl lacrosse player, the Nike camp was exactly what she needed! My daughter had a great time. The only complaint was how tired she was at the end of each day instruction. Camp was great, we have recommended this camp to her fellow team member back in home. Thank you!!
