At 495, we are committed to truly investing in our players and families. Our Winter program includes a ton of indoor practice time. Not only will 495 Lacrosse offer 24+ hours of high quality training (per each age group), but we also offer some alternating days/locations to provide our families with maximum optionality to allow for heightened participation by all.
Training for all focuses on:
- Individual & Positional skills,
- Team based strategies (O & D),
- Field and box concepts/skill training,
- Goalies and FOGOs (dedicated coaching),
- Footwork, speed and agility,
- High tempo transition,
- IQ development, etc.
During our specialized positional training throughout the year, we will have multiple Elevate 11th Man Defenders on the turf to assist with dodging and Offensive skill development. Our Defenders will work on footwork (ie ladder drills, drop steps, recoveries, etc.), approaches, proper stick positioning, proper body positioning/angles, Team D concepts, various stick checks, etc. Goalies and Face-off training also takes place at our practices.
Our program is designed to provide deep instruction and develop stronger fundamentals/IQ through “How To”, “When To” and “Where To” on the field. This high level Training is something we take great pride in, and it is very important.
We are excited to provide a TON of training time and truly invest in our players and families!
