Client Reviews

My son has had only a couple sessions and he really loves them. Great instruction and my son has learned a lot within those sessions. Will be booking more throughout the summer, and summers to come. 5 stars

Coach Alex is a great coach. I've been meeting with him since the beginning of the spring season and now I'm a completely different player. he critiqued my time and room shot (lefty and righty) by recording it and doing a voiceover. After training with him, both shots are pretty much perfected. we do drills that improve my dodges, on the run shots, and more. he helped me come from being an average player on the town B team, to the best player on the B team in the same season, and then to a starting player on a regional team. He helps me become deadly on the field by training me both physically and mentally. He's always there when i need him and were always in touch. He's a great coach and I would recommend him to any player looking to take their game to the next level. Im definitely looking forward to training with him throughout my high school lacrosse career.
