Preseason Face-Off Clinic
The Homegrown Lacrosse Preseason Face-Off Clinic offers players the opportunity to develop extensive face-off skills and knowledge.
As the game of lacrosse has evolved, the positions have also become more specialized. Each facet of the game has tremendous significance but face-offs play an integral role in determining the tempo of a game, as well as possession time.
Clinic Focus
Each player will receive individualized instruction, breaking down a face-off from start to finish. During camp they will go over different strategies and techniques helping them to take the best advantage of their strengths and minimize their weaknesses. Additionally, players will receive feedback with notes from the staff on strengths and areas to continue developing.
Campers will recieve:
- Two hours of high level instructions from the state's top face-off staff
- Feedback on individual technique
- Group work with a Minnesota Lacrosse Official on face-off rules
- Take-home information on individual drills and exercises catared specifically to face-offs
- HGL shirt

*Stations include:
-Proper stance and balance
