Summer Lacrosse CampsOur five-week summer lacrosse camps leverage the experience, knowledge, skills and principles learned in the three-week lacrosse camp to integrate their lacrosse training with academic preparation. This summer camp is delivered in a competitive league format and both the field and indoor (box) lacrosse settings. This format has proven to be extremely effective in accelerating learning and development through a series of competitive games and events. 

Players typically seek to use the half-summer of lacrosse camp to prep for their next competitive season. They take advantage of the opportunity to catch up on high school classes, start taking college courses, practice for the SAT and/or brush up on English. The five-week summer lacrosse camps offer a variety of options that include a lacrosse-only camp or league, or a combination of lacrosse + high school classes, college courses, SAT prep classes or Intensive English program.

The IMG Lacrosse Academy's summer lacrosse camp program is designed for players of all skill levels who want to enjoy the combination of exceptional lacrosse instruction, cutting-edge performance training and a fun-filled experience as they work to become THE TOTAL ATHLETE.

All summer lacrosse camps, regardless of length, feature a Core lacrosse training program that includes lacrosse instruction plus group physical conditioning and mental conditioning with performance specialists. TOTAL ATHLETE training programs are designed to help facilitate increased development and higher performance with one extra hour per day of small-group training in the following: mental toughness, nutrition, speed/movement, communication and vision/reaction.

TOTAL ATHLETE vs. Core Camps

Summer Lacrosse Camp

With five weeks dedicated to total on-field and off-field development, no other summer lacrosse camp in the nation cam match the IMG Lacrosse Academy's 5-Week Summer Lacrosse Camp.

All campers receive five weeks of a core lacrosse training camp that includes position-specific training, drills to address all areas of the game, classroom strategy sessions, scrimmages and physical and mental conditioning with IMG Performance Institute specialists, as well as the ability to upgrade to THE TOTAL ATHLETE lacrosse training camp.

All facets of lacrosse will be covered and you will succeed in strengthening lacrosse I.Q. like never before. Each week will encompasses a different individual and team skill set, so at the end of the summer lacrosse camp, both you and your coaches will notice a dramatic improvement in stick-work, shooting, strength, face-offs, quickness, stamina, dodging and confidence.
