About the camp: BaggataGuys
Lacrosse teaches the skills of lacrosse using novel drills, concepts and language players can understand, relate to and retain – all in a high energy and supportive setting. The focus is on FUNdamentals, but with a Flair… We stress traditional staples but explore what is possible with the stick and a ball.
BaggataGuys training transfers knowledge, maximizes touches and develops motor coordination.
Our goal, in a condensed time frame, is to help the guys advance at an accelerated rate.
We teach ambidexterity. We set our expectations high.
We aim to increase each BaggataGuy’s lacrosse IQ and overall comfort level playing America’s native game, which our North American forebears called “Baggataway.”
This is not a cookie cutter curriculum. BaggataGuys training has been honed over years of collective experience by highly respected and caring parents and coaches – all of whom have played and coached at the highest level. And we have seen the results.
We know what you want to see as a parent – joy, smiles, passion, teamwork, effort, improvement, confidence and success. We have crafted the program with these things in mind. We look forward to sharing our love and passion for lacrosse with your sons and fostering a desire in them to continue playing the game at a higher level.
