About STEPS Lacrosse Camp
STEPS Summer Lacrosse Camps are the absolute best in the industry, and my oldest has been an excited participant for the past 6 summers. The STEPS program boasts the #1 Girls Lacrosse Club team in the COUNTRY! Their tournaments are US Lacrosse sanctioned qualifiers. If your kids are little, and you haven't yet been fully introduced to the world of lacrosse, in a nutshell, these things all add up to mean you'll be starting them off on the right foot! This is not your typical sports camp with HS and College counselors going through the motions - camp groups are run by top HS coaches and collegiate players. And STEPS camp isn't just about lacrosse - it's about teamwork and having fun. Your beginning laxer will have just as much enjoyment and personal training as a child who's had a stick in his/her hand since birth.
