Topics Designed for Coaches Who Want to Level Up

We don't just cover Xs and Os. The Play Coaches Education Series digs into all dimensions of what it means to be a great lacrosse coach — on the field and off it.

  • Position-Specific Training Deep dives on offense, defense, faceoffs, and goalkeeping — from pros who play those positions at the PLL/WLL level.

  • Practice Planning How to structure sessions that maximize development, keep players engaged, and make the most of limited field time.

  • Player Development Long-term athlete development frameworks, skill progression, and how to get the most out of every player on your roster.

  • Leadership & Culture What it actually takes to build a program — not just a team. Covering coach-athlete relationships, team culture, and accountability.

  • Mental Performance The mental side of the game — confidence, focus, resilience, and how to coach players through adversity.

  • College Recruiting What coaches and players need to know about the recruiting process, from club coaches navigating it for their athletes to high school coaches supporting families.
