White Plains Summer Lacrosse Camp will provide each camper with the finest instruction through a low 8 to 1 camper to counselor ratio.
Our goal is to provide each camper the opportunity to improve their lacrosse skills and knowledge of the game. This will be done through individual periods and small group instruction, team practice and play.
The camp will be designed for players of all abilities from the advanced to the beginner.
