PREPARE FOR A SUCCESSFUL SEASON WITH ACCELERATION’S
LACROSSE PROGRAMS.

INTRODUCING OUR SUMMER LACROSSE CAMP TO IMPROVE YOUR OVERALL GAME:
Acceleration Sports Training Centers were developed to help athletes improve the power, speed, agility, strength, and confidence to improve their game. Lacrosse athletes who participate in the Acceleration training programs train with the most advanced technology available today, along with specialized equipment, all designed to improve their game.
Improve your:

• Offensive Positioning
• Stick Handling
• Stick Protection
• Defensive Positioning
• Defensive Stick Checks
• Shooting Techniques
• Shot Placement
• Face-Off Techniques
• Strength and Conditioning
• Speed and Agility

LACROSSE ATHLETES WHO PARTICIPATE IN THE ACCELERATION TRAINING PROGRAMS TRAIN WITH THE MOST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE TODAY, ALONG WITH SPECIALIZED EQUIPMENT, ALL DESIGNED TO IMPROVE:

• Acceleration and speed for running with and without the ball & accelerate past the defender or getting into position
• Agility for changing direction quickly on the field
• Body coordination & balance for executing moves accurately
• Strength and power for forceful shots on the goal

Components of the Program:
RUNNING IS THE FOUNDATION OF LACROSSE. -A LACROSSE PLAYER MAY HAVE LEARNED EXCELLENT SKILLS IN ORDER TO OUTSMART THEIR OPPONENT, BUT WITHOUT THE SPEED TO MOVE DOWN THE FIELD QUICKLY AND GET IN POSITION, THE PLAYER’S LEARNED TECHNIQUES MIGHT NOT BE ENOUGH TO MAKE THE PLAY.
Generation II Super Treadmill -Research has shown that incline running on our unique, hydraulically controlled Super Treadmill provides 200-300% more recruitment of the muscles responsible for increasing and maintaining speed, than running on level ground at the same stride frequency. This specialized training is crucial for improving the overall speed and acceleration needed for general lacrosse play.
Strength Training -Through the use of specially designed weight equipment and an individualized program, lacrosse athletes can develop and increase their overall strength base, contributing to more forceful shots on goal.
Plyometrics - Plyometric training includes a variety of footwork drills and special exercises that enhance an athlete’s ability to stay balanced and change directions quickly and explosively for changing direction, moving around defenders, and proper defensive positioning.
