Kids Summer Camps

Great Lacrosse Camps

Kids Camper — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 12:52:35 +0000

Marquette University has just announced two amazing lax camps for girls. These come highly recommended. These camps are hosted by division 1, Big East, Golden Eagles. The first is July 13-15 and the second is July 16-19. Both camps are affordable, with even the overnight options being under $500. I highly recommend this camp for young female lacrosse players looking to improve their game. Camps that occur directly following the lax spring season can be particularly beneficial as you build well on your enhanced skills.
