Camp Objectives
The goal of Hofstra University Girls Lacrosse Camp is for every player to learn new skills and have fun playing the sport we all love! Instruction includes individual skills, strategies and game play. With a knowledgeable and experienced staff, we strive to educate each player and build on his or her strengths while addressing any weaknesses. The counselors demonstrate techniques and develop campers’ skills in a fun, positive environment, and they encourage players of all abilities to be successful at the next level.
Daily Program
All players are divided by age and experience, and requests to be with friends will be honored. The day is divided into station/drill sessions, individual instruction, team practice, and tournament game play. Campers receive hands-on, individual attention in all areas of the game. Instruction includes, but is not limited to, catching, throwing, stick handling, dodging, draws, goal keeping, transition, groundballs, and defensive and offensive scenarios.
What to Bring / Wear
Please bring a lacrosse stick, goggles, and mouthguard. All goalies are responsible for bringing their own equipment.
Each camper should wear daily: cotton T-shirt, athletic shorts, and sneakers or cleats. Campers must also bring a water bottle.
Bathing suit and towel will be needed on assigned swim days.
Please label all items clearly with first and last name. Hofstra is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
