St. John's College High School on Military Rd in DC (just outside Chevy Chase, MD)

Concept/Philosophy:
This is a fun, instructional camp where emphasis is placed on improving individual skills and basic team concepts. The goal of these camps is to provide the best instruction and learning environment for young, aspiring players. Focus will be placed on teaching and showing proper individual skills for each camper. Perfect technique will be emphasized. We will aim to teach only those precise fundamentals which will last throughout their young careers as they develop into complete lacrosse players.
In the first two hours of each camp, athletes will be placed in groups according to size, skill, and experience. In those groups we will teach specific individual skills and basic team concepts. We utilize competition small group drills to teach specific aspects of the game. In the final hour campers will play games and scrimmages. "Fireball" is a Madlax Camp specialty. Every day Madlax camps always reward one "Camper of the Day" who exemplifies a great attitude. This award can range from a stick to a stringing kit and it does not necessarily go to the best player. Rather it goes to the kid who asks the best questions, is tough, hustles, and proves to the coaches that he wants to get better while having fun! Don't miss this rare opportunity to be taught by the best!

Testimonials
Hi Coach Phillips,
I just wanted to thank you and your staff for a great job last week at camp. I am glad my brother in law recommended your camp. It was well run. The boys were having fun and learning a lot. The counselors did a great job of interacting with the kids while keeping control and teaching the fundamentals. I also liked how the high school kids were mixed in with the middle school kids. The atmosphere was great for learning the game and meeting new kids. I know my son Jimmy really enjoyed it. He is a pretty laid back kid but all he talks about after last week is concentrating on lacrosse more over the next couple of years. We were at the beach this week and he would not put the stick down! He normally plays basketball and baseball but I can tell that he enjoys lacrosse a lot more and it is easy to see why. Anyway I know it takes a lot of work (and time) to put a great camp together so thanks again. He will be back next year.
