Goalies

The Golden State Lacrosse Goalie School is designed and run by Jake McKenna (Harvard 01-04), and Mike Russell (Duke 01-04). Hour long private or group lessons focus on goalie-specific training and drills. Positioning, footwork, communication, and overall technique are the focus of the sessions, with experienced shooters conducting drills.

Testimonials

Parent
"I wanted to pass along that both Eric and Wade, tired as they have been after every day of camp this week, have nothing but good things to say about your camp. That is a huge compliment coming from these two players with 5 and 6 years of club + high school lacrosse. They say the coaching is outstanding, and even though they are sore, they are up and ready for the next day. "
  - C. Van Norden, San Jose, CA

Coach
"Chris and Eric get it. This is a thinking mans game to be played with passion and controlled aggression. Their model is what camps should be...up tempo and stressing the fundamentals without sacrificing fun."
  - Joe Thompson, U of Virginia Asst Coach

Player
"Experiencing Chris and Eric's camps, it is clear that they know the game of lacrosse and can successfully teach it to others. What impressed me the most and separated their camp from others was their caring attitudes for the kids and genuine interest in developing their campers skills"
  - Brian McDermott, U of Virginia Midfielder
