FALL TRAINING SESSIONS
Hello everyone! Hope you all are having a great start to the school year. In Lieu of running a team to take to a tournament we've decided it would be more beneficial to run some training this fall. This will be open to 4th through 8th graders. We'll be breaking up by position:
- Goalie
- Face-off
- Offense
- Defense
We'll be going over the the intricacies of inside finishing on offense, shooting on the run, and creating separations on 1 on 1's. On defense we'll work on positioning, giving ground and approaches. Goalies Arc work and hand positioning along with footwork. Face off moves and counter moves.
This is only available to current Rockford Youth Boys Lacrosse players
This is not meant for brand new players
We will combine at times to do 1v1's and other competition but this will mainly be positional work!!
Sessions:
When: October 6, 13, and 27th - 3:30pm-5:30pm
Where: ERMS
Cost: $30 per player

Wall Ball Has Come To an End But.....
With only one lacrosse day for the next month, you'll have some time to improve at home. Put in 30 minutes, 3/4 times per week and I guarantee you'll improve drastically by the time we head outside.
PARENTS - DO THIS WITH YOUR KID SO YOU CAN LEARN TOO!!!
A lot of wall ball motions is the same as if a second basemen was throwing to first base, or is simple out route/flat route from receiver/running back from the QB!
Get a tennis ball or a softer ball, get in your basement, on your knees if you're tall, and put in a little work!
For our 7/8 graders take a look at this video.
