PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Our philosophy is to provide all participating players with a positive and fun learning environment with an emphasis on the fundamental aspects of the game. It is our belief that fun and enjoyment of the game remains the most important element for success. The developmental age of the participant is taken into consideration with regards to the content and the delivery of the sessions. The Clearview Youth Lacrosse Program will be run as one unit with every coach of every age group working collectively to teach the same philosophy and fundamentals of the game. We will be teaching stick skills, offensive and defensive positioning and movement, field sense, small and big game concepts and a willingness to compete with every age group.

The Clearview Youth Lacrosse Program is dedicated to teaching the fundamentals of the game of lacrosse and preparing them for the field of competition. We are about promoting a positive coaching and playing environment, teamwork, sportsmanship, commitment, and having fun, as well as advancing the sport of lacrosse. We want each and every participant to feel like they have made a contribution to themselves as well as to their respective team both on and off the field. Our goal is to teach them the game of lacrosse as well as teach them valuable life lessons. The program is designed for all Clearview area youth ranging from Kindergarten to 8th Grade.

Our program is designed for any player who wants to learn the game of lacrosse. Practices will be planned according to the players’ needs. We will divide the players according to their level of play in each age group in order to meet the needs of each player at their individual level. Our goal is to make every player better throughout the season and still keep the game of lacrosse fun and enjoyable.

Our focus will be on four major areas of the game:

  1. Technical – Core Skills-Stick skills-Passing/Catching-1v1 Attacking and Defending
  2. Tactical – Game Concepts-Seeing the Field-Decision Making-Team Play
  3. Mental – Mind-set of a young player-Will to compete-Work ethic-Attitude
  4. Physical – Foundation of a young athlete-Agility-Acceleration-Change of speeds-Endurance
