The Southern Lacrosse Camp is a 4 day instructional boy’s lacrosse camp held at Birmingham-Southern College for overnight or day campers of all skill levels from ages 9-18. The camp includes three sessions per full day with meals at the college dining hall served between sessions. Campers are grouped with players of similar skill level and age group for sessions. Field sessions are held at the college’s new athletic complex fields. Overnight resident campers stay in 2 person supervised college dormitories on campus. Campers will learn the game from counselors who were former collegiate All-American players, current college coaches and players, current high school coaches, and current professional players. From beginner stick skill fundamentals to advanced team concepts, each camper will benefit from the staff’s experience and enthusiasm to pass along the knowledge of the game that they have learned along the way. Above all, campers will be able to have fun learning and playing the game in a safe and structured environment.
