The week down in Atlanta was great! Despite some heat early in the week, the players showed tremendous effort as they worked on improving their individual skills and mental understanding of the game. Each day the staff challenged them with new techniques and the players responded admirably. At the end of each day, campers were split into teams and scrimmaged. As the week progressed, the level of play increased and the players treated the staff to some beautiful lacrosse.

Highlights included several transition drills such as the 2v1/1v1 Full-Field Drill, the One Less Drill (which apparently everyone in Atlanta calls “Popcorn”), and the Situation Drill. We also spent considerable time practicing all of the various shots and the defense got the chance to work on specific skills like 1v1 clearing, cross-field passes, and “hockey.” The players also loved the mini-field 4v4 scrimmage where they got the chance to show off their various skills. As always we ended the week with an incredible raffle that included several Mystery Boxes, where Ryan Boyle gave away his NY Titans helmet to the early session and his Boston Cannons gloves to the High Schoolers.

Overall, it was an incredible week and we look forward to being back soon. Lastly, the Staff got the chance to hit the Andretti racing course and absolutely loved it!! We definitely recommend it for those of age that are looking for a little rush of adrenaline. Have a great remainder of the Summer and hope to see everyone soon!
