Description |
Designed for beginning (no experience necessary) and intermediate players, these camps emphasize individual lacrosse skills but also incorporates some elements of game strategy using the 3 v 3 Lacrosse ("Chumash") small-sided game. Session time includes both instruction and controlled scrimmages (once the players are at a level where a scrimmage is an effective learning tool). Camp also provides an opportunity to develop skills prior to trying out for a youth club lacrosse team.
We have separate camps for beginning and intermediate players. Within those groups, where appropriate and where possible based on the number of participants, campers will be divided by age and ability after observation by the coaching staff. With an instructor:player ratio of 10:1 or better, it is easy to facilitate multiple levels of instruction for different age groups. |

Dylan Preble, four-year player (2005-2008) and captain (2008) on the Colorado State University Lacrosse Team. |

Back to top The Indoor Lacrosse Facility at The Edge
The Edge Sports Center has several field configurations available for use in Lacrosse Camps. Depending upon what the instructor wants to accomplish on a given day, one or the other configuration may be used.
Full Field Team Practice Setup: The full 180' x 122' open field has been permanently lined to simulate the center section (lengthwise) of a full-sized lacrosse field, from the mid-field strip to the end-line beyond the goal. This allows enough space for a standard size 'Attack area,' with the corresponding mid-field area.
 
Two full-size, standard lacrosse goals are available in this configuration.
The 3 v 3 Lacrosse (“Chumash”) Setup:Two full 3 v 3 Lacrosse (“Chumash”) fields can be fit into the 60 yard by 40 yard indoor field at The Edge Sports Center. This allows two games to be taking place simultaneously. Each field is equipped with a standard Chumash goal. There is protected space in the middle of the field for spectators.
