Our Staff
Academy Lacrosse Club was founded with a simple goal: to help lacrosse players elevate their game.
We believe in using a systematic training model that provides players with a clear path to achieve their personal goals. Part of that model includes regular evaluations and consistent coach feedback. We also believe that being a lacrosse player greatly impacts your life off the field which is why we value development, a willingness to try new things, and a positive mindset.
Our staff is composed of coaches with high-level coaching experience and a commitment to developing lacrosse players at every experience level to continue to grow the love of the game in the St. Louis area.
