We Build Lacrosse Players. We understand that every player grows and learns differently. Each of our Elite Travel Teams consists of players who not only bring out the best in each other but also creates an environment where they can be successful individually on the field. It is our belief, to be the best you must compete against the best. We ensure that every year our players are seeing a wide range of the best programs in the country so they are continuously preparing to compete at the highest level. We believe there are two distinct characteristics of our program that sets us apart from other programs. First, is the foundational training we provide to our players within the competitive team environment. We focus on developing each of our players as a whole player, including position specific training on both ends of the field. We encourage our players to train “outside the box” and have many opportunities for them to grow through non-traditional training. One example is the integration of box lacrosse concepts within our team practices. With the focus of fast pace execution and quick thinking, we have seen a dramatic increase in our players' individual stick skills and lacrosse IQ. The second characteristic we believe sets us apart from other programs is our coaching staff and the individual feedback they give each player on the team. While we do boast a competitive team environment, it is important for the development of each of our players for them to have specific feedback tailored to their individual (and unique) needs. We do not believe that “one size fits all”. It is our philosophy that we take the time to get to know each of our players' learning styles as well as how they are motivated so we can help them achieve their specific long term goals. A big part of that feedback is ensuring each time a player is subbed out of a game, they are spoken to by one of their coaches. This gives them the ability to learn inreal game time situations as well as develops their confidence to learn through the up and down of the game. It is important to us, as a staff, for our players to feel comfortable enough to take risks, potentially fail, and learn, without the fear of repercussions. It is only through mistakes and the guidance of our coaches, that our players will learn to self correct on the field, therefore heightening their lacrosse IQ, and adding depth to their game. Our players are also given two written evaluations throughout the year, so they have a personalized training agenda to help them reach their highest potential. In 2018 after partnering with Stick2Stick Lacrosse, we established BBL North. We are now able to offer the same top level training in a location that is more convenient for our families in Bergen County. Please visit the BBL North page for more information.
