Come out and learn the exciting game of lacrosse in the Rookie Sports Club Lacrosse Program! Children will be split by age group in this recreational program, designed to introduce the basic skills and help players understand the rules and style of the game. Coaches will use fun games to teach participants the fundamentals including scooping ground balls, throwing, catching, cradling, shooting, and defending. Each week will include a practice portion to help skill development as well as modified, non-competitive game. Checking will not be allowed and there will be zero physical contact. Face goggles, helmets, and pads will not be necessary.
Coaches will explain there are slight differences in competitive girls lacrosse and boys lacrosse. However all basic skills are taught the same except coaches will teach the difference in cradling. Boys sticks and softer lacrosse balls will be used for this program. Children are welcome to bring their own sticks if they would like. However, boys sticks are actually very helpful for all beginning players. It allows a higher success rate for skills, especially catching (girls lacrosse stick have a more shallow pocket which makes catching more challenging especially with a lighter ball).

Pickleball
Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the U.S. because it’s accessible to people of all walks of life. If you teach your kids to play you will create a fun family activity to enjoy together for many years. A combination of tennis, ping pong, and badminton, Pickleball is easy for all ages to learn. First we introduce kids to the equipment, court, and rules. Then we work on the fundamentals of the serve, forehand, and backhand. Before long we are playing! Each subsequent class begins with a review of the fundamentals and a focus on one strategic element to the game. 10 minutes later we are playing Pickleball under the supervision of an experienced Coach who provides situational instruction throughout the program.
