At Lighthouse Lacrosse your child’s safety is our first priority.  Parents can rest assure their children will be in good hands and know that Lighthouse is doing everything in their power to make the camp as safe as possible.  On hand will be an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), Heat Index Monitor, certified athletic trainers, as well as water and ice. 

Lighthouse Lacrosse will be donating a portion of the camp proceeds to the Louis J. Acompora Memorial Foundation. The Foundation's mission is to prevent commotio cordis, and it's success stories are directly attributable to the generous donations from our supporters. The Foundations efforts are focused along several paths. The first is awareness of the need for AEDs, particularly where our children spend most of their time - in the schools, the second is the the implementation of public access defibrillation programs, the third is training of individuals in CPR and the use of an AED, and the fourth is research, which will ultimately develop chest protection to protect against sudden cardiac arrest in young athletes. If you would like to learn more about the Louis J. Acompora Memorial Foundation or would like to make a donation, please visit www.LA12.org.

MORNING SESSION: Players will be divided into appropriate divisions according to their position, skill, and age. The morning session will concentrate on the fundamentals, individual skills, positioning, field spacing and transitional play.
(Dodging, feeding, shooting, ground balls, takeaway checks, face-offs, stick protection, 1-1 defense, etc.)

LUNCH: Lunch will NOT be provided for the campers. Please ensure each camper brings their own lunch in a cooler with their name clearly labeled on it. However, Borrelli’s pizza, soda/water and
Ralph’s Italian ices will be provided the LAST DAY of camp.

AFTERNOON SESSION: The afternoon session will be a continuation of comprehensive instruction with the emphasis on players showcasing the skills learned during the morning session in full field play providing the staff with the opportunity to evaluate, critique, and make recommendations.

STRINGING SESSION: Too few players have the ability to properly string or understand how to adjust the way their stick throws; therefore, Lighthouse Lacrosse offers its campers thorough stringing lessons throughout the 4 days of camp.

Players will be supplied with an unstrung head and mesh kit. They will learn how to string their own stick by some of the best stringers on Long Island. Players will also learn how to maintain and repair their current sticks as well.

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING: James Brown-Hernandez will demonstrate and conduct creative strength and conditioning exercises specially designed for lacrosse. James’ sessions will bring insight on developing an edge for the upcoming season by instilling motivation and guidance through what he calls “Peak Endurance.” This is a sports specific mindset that concentrates on increasing stabilization, strength, agility, and speed.

Q & A SESSION WITH A CERTIFIED NCAA OFFICIAL: A NCAA certified Boys Official will discuss and educate campers on the rules of the game as they pertain to their age as well as review the importance of Sportsmanship. Campers will be able to have all of their questions directly answered by the people who know the rules the best.
