Description

Play Great Lacrosse is pleased to announce our 2015 Sunday Shooting Skills Sessions! This is not a recruiting event. This is a "get better” event designed to help you become a better player on the teams you playe for. I am going teach and focus on the the fundamentals of shooting. Specifically we will work on stationary shooting mechanics, shooting on the run and inside off ball shooting techniques. We will also focus on how to get open for a shot in a variety of situations. Being able to shoot the ball is one aspect. Being able to work efficiently without the ball to get your shot is another skills set. We will work to combine the two. We will work on deception as part of being an effective offensive player and scorer. In other words we will work on how to use screens, fakes, and even the on ball defender to your advantage as an offensive player. As part of shooting we will work on some specific dodges and combination dodges and understanding how to read a slide and how to get to high efficiency scoring areas. Finally we will work on how to read a goalie and how to shoot effectively on a goalie in a variety of situations. 

Campers are going to shoot the ball a lot! Arms and backs and legs are going to be tired at the end of the day. What will likely be more tired is the brain. I am going to be fairly relentless with coaching points for the entire day. I will dish out a lot of praise as well but I am going to demand the correct techniques or the attempt at them at least. No one is going to leave with a faster shot necessarily. This will come with practice when no one is looking. But the work we will do will make you better in games and practices and if you work on the fundamentals I am going to teach you then in time your shot will become better and better. 
 
I am going to exclusively work with all of you. We will have 10 shooters for this session. This is my passion. I love coaching and I love coaching offensive skills. Come ready to work and be coachable. Make sure you get a good night sleep, eat well and hydrate well. I will have water and gatorade available throughout the day. Lunch is provided in the marketplace. Parents are welcome to eat lunch in the marketplace as well (cost is approximately $9). I plan to eat lunch with the campers but they can eat with you if you prefer. 
 
You will need all of your equipment but we will not wear all of it the entire day. Please bring a reversible jersey with a dark side and a white side on it. I will supply all of the balls goals, cones, drinks. Please make sure that you read our Waiver.
