Who Can Attend The High School Shooting / Fundamental Skills Camp?
This camp is by invitation only. All players must have a coach's (High school or Club coach) recommendation to attend this camp.
We at Burning River want to be clear on the purpose of the camp. It is for players looking to improve their skills, make the step up to the next level and lead their teams (travel team and travel team quality players - 2012 starters). It is not for beginning players.
The instruction will be intense, in small groups (att, mid, def, goalies) and geared towards helping the attendees get ready to lead their teams in the coming year. The instruction will be given by some of the top area coaches (e.g. Calleri, Fisher, Bell), and Burning River Lacrosse alumni who are playing in college. It will be based on the practices that some of the top college coaches in Division 1, 2, and 3 (e.g. Salisbury, Roanoke, NYIT, Syracuse, Maryland, Hobart) have helped us organize and have used themselves to guide their teams to the success they have had in the NCAA playoffs.

Shoes
The fields are grass. Plan accordingly.
Medical Insurance
Burning River does not provide medical insurance. All players must have their own medical insurance.
Weather Policy
We play in all weather except lightening. Lightening will delay things 30 minutes but we will still try to get the camp in if the lightening was earlier in the morning. A passing storm at 7 AM does not cancel the camp. If it is raining who cares this is not baseball we play. If they get muddy so be it. Kids love mud (at least my kids do) and the washing machine cleans up their clothes. Some of you will ask at what point will you call it for rain? I will put it this way, unless you see animals lining up two by two and a man building an arc we will play.
Should a session or two get cancelled due to lightening we will do the best we can to work with the facilities manager to schedule a make up date. However, please understand that that may not always be possible. We do not refund a percentage of the registration fee if weather cancels sessions. If it helps to think of the league as 5 weeks with a bonus rain week then think of it that way.
