Why AMBITION LACROSSE:
In my time as a premier girl’s lacrosse club director and coach, as well as a Wilton High School Coach, I have recognized the need for a program such as this for the girls in our lacrosse community. While our area is saturated with competitive club teams that focus on winning and college recruiting, the majority of our youth girls just want to PLAY, to LEARN, IMPROVE and G
ROW their game without families needing to sacrifice half their summers traveling to tournaments up and down the east coast. The reality is that the NY Metro area has some of the best lacrosse in the country. No need to travel to Virginia end up playing a team from Long Island! We are conscious of the family, financial and time commitment of club lacrosse and strive to strike a healthy balance. Unfortunately, the competitive landscape of Fairfield County has made it difficult for many girls to compete and enjoy participating on their travel and high school teams if they are not playing club lacrosse or putting in the work to develop as players in the off season. It can be very difficult to keep up. Not every girl wants to play Top D1 college lacrosse. Most just want to play on their town travel or high school teams, to make their town’s “A” team, their JV or Varsity High school team; to earn significant playing time, be proud of their skill level, and enjoy their experience while having an impact. For our players who aspire to compete at the collegiate level, we offer full access, support and guidance in the recruiting process. As Club Director and Coach, I have unique experience in the college lacrosse recruiting landscape having guided not only my players but my own children through college recruiting at highly esteemed institutions. As such, our staff is knowledgeable and experienced regarding the recruiting process from all sides- coach, club, parent and player. As AMBITION LACROSSE Director, I will be personally involved in the process should an athlete chose to play college lacrosse. The sport of lacrosse has provided some of my best life experiences, and I have loved watching my children enjoy the same. But what is missing today, that I can see though my own children, is the focus on LEARNING, on being a part of a team and the love of the sport rather than competing with your own teammates or which teams are “the best”. Enter our qualified and caring staff. We have the unique opportunity to create a supportive, team centered environment for those players looking for a club in which to grow as players and as young women. We participate in competitive and skill-appropriate tournaments without a huge travel and family commitment. WHY PLAY AMBITION:
