Coaching
John Hayden, Mike Curatolo, & Warren Shumate have over 100 years coaching and camp experience. Our commitment to today's youth, and to teaching the great game of lacrosse is the underlying theme of the camp.
Because of commitment to teaching at this camp, our ratio of campers to coaches is 7:1. This gives all campers a great opportunity to receive individual attention. Camp staff includes local college and high school head and assistant coaches as well as current and former college lacrosse players.
