I think this is a very interesting webinar for all lacrosse coaches.  What I love about this presentation is it truly allows players to learn how to be decision makers.  The backside down pick that is executed out of motion is a very interesting movement that both occupies defenders as well as creating great pop, curl, and slip options.

How you move your feet is how you position yourself for success. Hesitation and Changing direction are the focus of these footwork drills. It is important to be nimble and have quick movement both laterally and vertically. Increasing the ease of creating space or maintaining a strong defensive position when responding to a dodge are just some of the results that will come from this course.

This can all be done anywhere you have space and the more frequently you practice these drills. So what are you waiting for ??? Get those feet MOVING

There are so many skills that can be learned from “Keep Away”. Understanding how defenders try to attack ball handlers and how they position themselves to cut off passing options. Putting oneself into as many different lacrosse situations as possible is the ultimate key to success. Better understanding how different defenders operate in different scenarios is yet another crucial piece in the puzzle to empowering player development. 

Beyond learning more about how defenders behave in “Keep Away” situations, there is a lot that can be learned from the offensive side of the ball as well. Players can see different off-ball offensive tendencies, learn the techniques to deceive defenders of where passes are aimed, and much more.

The best place and time to improve is when away from the normal game. Here Jamie, his close friends, and family help illustrate different shooting practices and types to do when outside of a practice setting.

This course was created in my Back Yard during quarantine. My family and I really wanted to get better at lacrosse (son who plays for Georgetown, a daughter who plays for ASU and another daughter who is a junior in high school), so we created this amazing curriculum with drills that are live and fully engaging. We had a wide variety of different drill opportunities, like 1v1s, 2v2s and others too. These drills and content are really fun and build on creating a "fluency" for the sport of Lacrosse. 

I am very interested in this concept of "Fluency" in sports.  Kroeten introduced me to this concept   Similar to second language acquisition where most of us studied a foreign language memorizing the rules, vocabulary, and grammar, but never achieving fluency, kids who practice in structure, dodging cones, and in environments devoid of decision making, will be limited in their fluency acquisition.  You see, fluency is about the "Input" which is the receiving and processing of information, not the output of executing. Think about your trip to Mexico, where you could order off the menu, but could not understand one word your server said to you!  

The literal element of Fluency is sports is the constant communication that is occurring.  Not just the verbal communication between teammates, but the non verbal communication players have with the opposition.  This is also known as deception!  If a player has "Fluency" he/she will essentially communicate with their opponent in order to manipulate them. 

Learn some of the most effective wall ball drills available. Experts always say that the best way to improve one's game is to spend time on the wall passing with one's self. These are drills that a player can do alone with just a stick, ball and wall. This course contains different young players honing their craft while demonstrating different methods to improve one's stick skills. Now is the time to get these invaluable drills that one can will give your team the offseason or in-season edge to get better. There is no time like the PRESENT to improve stick skills. 

Box Lacrosse has been one of the truest teachers of the game for me as a player and a coach.  Playing in the Major Indoor Lacrosse League back in the 90's opened my eyes to the game in a new way. Recruiting and studying Canadians at the University of Denver, my entire philosophy on offense and player development became rooted in the principles of box lacrosse.

This webinar is video from this past summer where my two daughters and a bunch of their friends and I spent a summer in Ontario playing box lacrosse!  You will love this webinar and the drills are exactly transferable to the field!

There are many different varieties of Backer Zones, and Zone defenses. However, this one will help a coach elevate their team to the next level. The zone is extremely effective for teams that lack the proper stickwork skills and other lacrosse abilities. Virginia Tech was a team that was lagging behind the rest of the ACC. This defensive setup enabled them to remain competitive in one of the most elite college lacrosse conferences, eventually providing them with the chance to catch up in terms of recruiting abilities. This course will help you get that needed leg up on the competition.

The Best way to improve when not practicing for a real game is to play mini games. Players experience the greatest development when they better understand how people move about the field in both wide and tight spaces. The only consistent thing that happens in a lacrosse game is the inconsistent moments that occur. Fast-paced games with varying amounts of players helps individual players improve immensely. To better understand the rationale of players is to BEST understand the game of lacrosse itself. 

Jamie Munro again offers his insights in how to utilize smaller game settings to continually be improving one's game. Working in as many different settings as possible focusing on different aspects of the game will improve skill IMMENSELY. Take advantage of these different assortments of players and use them to get better.
