Training 2020
Liv Lax Training Sessions-Round 2 Now Open!
*For the safety of participants and coaches all sessions will be conducted in accordance with the current state and local health guidelines.
Looking for Training Sessions designed specifically for the Lacrosse athlete? The Liv Lax Training Sessions are just that! These 1 hour sessions include speed and agility training as well as strength conditioning designed for the Lacrosse player. The speed and agility part of the session will work with athletes on quick feet, ability to change direction, muscle stamina, hip movement, eye-hand coordination and balance. The strength conditioning portion of the session will focus on explosiveness, power, and strength and flexibility for shooting velocity. As the fastest game on two feet becomes even faster and players are becoming stronger, these sessions will give players at all skill levels and ages an advantage when competing. Sessions are available in 2 options 1) small groups (10 or less) or 2) individual/sibling lessons.
A typical session:
10 minutes: Dynamic Warm-up
20 Minutes: Plyometrics
30 Minutes: Strength Training
Small Group Training (Up to 10 players):
Liv Lax will follow the CIFSS proposed guidelines for return to sports for Lacrosse: “Conditioning, individual ball skill drills, no contact or sharing of balls. A player may shoot with a ball(s) but a team should not practice/pass a single ball among the team where multiple players touch same ball.”
Training Sessions Round 2: The next 2 weeks (July 20 & July 27) we will mix things up and play other sports that are beneficial to the game of Lacrosse. This will be a mix of speed and strength training along with drills/games from other sports (basketball, kickball, etc). All games/drills will be no contact. We may move around to different parks based on the space we need for a particular day.
