Morrisville State to offer developmental lacrosse clinic

Morrisville State College will host a developmental lacrosse clinic for high school level players Thursday nights, starting June 9th. The clinic will run June 9, 16, July 14, 21, 28 and August 4 from 6 – 8:30 p.m. on Drake Field on the Morrisville State campus.



These clinics are designed for players who are looking to excel and develop their game at the collegiate level. The primary focus will be on training and development of high school players.



The cost for the clinic is $30 per session or $100 for all six (6) sessions.



Clinic participants will receive hands-on instruction from the Morrisville State College Lacrosse Staff and players led by two-time Coach of the Year, Jason Longo. Players will be exposed to high intensity on field sessions devoted to the improvement of individual skills such as passing and catching, shooting, dodging, face-offs, goalie play, ground ball play, as well as different situational play with team/game philosophy and small area game competitions.



Also included is a specialized off-field training session with over six hours of intensive conditioning, strength building, hand-eye coordination, development exercises, and instructional tactics designed to improve speed and quickness, balance, flexibility, strength and endurance.



In addition, players will learn the mental aspect of the game and different coaching tactics used by the top coaches throughout the country.



The clinics will also include a breakdown and analysis of each individual by using film. Each player, if desired, can view their techniques by watching film after each session. Tips and recommendations for recruiting will also be provided.
