WELCOME TO THE VALLEY LAX VIRTUAL SPRING CLINIC!

WEEK 4 OF OUR VIRTUAL CLINIC HAS BEEN LOADED.  WE HAVE A NEW SKILL SHEET WITH A NEW FOOTWORK AND STICK TRICKS  VIDEO. SCROLL DOWN TO FIND THE NEW SKILL SHEET AND  VIDEOS, IT'S TIME TO PICK UP YOUR STICK AND START PRACTICING!

In normal times our practices clinics would have started.  Unfortunately, the COVID-19 virus has put our normal lives on hold. The virus is causing tragedy and hardship all over the world, but it does not need to stop us from having fun playing lacrosse.  That's why we are doing our Virtual Clinic. 

The Virtual Clinic is a way for kids to play and improve at lacrosse while maintaining social distancing.  Try playing for 15 minutes a day. If you want to do more, do more. If you can't do that much don't worry, just do some.  We just want kids to pick up their sticks and enjoy lacrosse. 

The Virtual Clinic is simple.  Download the Lax@Home Scoresheet below and print it out if you can.  Pick 3 skills to work on.  Watch the skill video and go practice the skill. Mark up the sheet with your results. Next day, pick 3 more skills and repeat.  You will be shocked at your improvement.  The skills are good if you are a boy or a girl.  The whole family can try them.
