Skills Training For Dodging / Finishing (Boys)

Boys Dodging and Finishing Sessions

Our Dodging / Finishing Sessions are among our most popular and productive training opportunities. Each weekly, one-hour session focuses on key offensive skills — including footwork, dodging technique, shooting mechanics, and decision-making — that players often receive limited coaching on during team practices.

Training takes place in small groups of 10 players or fewer per coach, ensuring focused instruction, high repetition, and individualized feedback.

These sessions are open to all area players and operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

From 2014 to 2024, our players have achieved outstanding recognition for their development and performance:
• 26 Ohio Position Player of the Year awards
• 216 All-Ohio selections
• 63 All-American honors
• 31 Academic All-American honors
• 14 Regional Player of the Year awards
• 52 Regional Position Player of the Year awards
• 444 All-Region selections

Parent Testimonials

  • "The hands on coaching and attention to detail has resulted in huge improvements in our son’s game. If you have a child who loves the sport and wants to improve……this is the place to train." Todd D - Shooting / Dodging Clinic
  • "Last nights clinic was awesome. I’ve tried many other of these shooting clinics before and I would say that this one was the best I have done yet. I loved the constant movement and how we were never standing around for that long. Thanks again and looking forward to next week already!" John R  - Shooting / Dodging Clinic
  • "My son LOVED the session last night.  He appreciated the time each of the coaches took to help him one on one with the dodges and stick positioning.  He loved learning some stick tricks and working on foot skills too. He said he gained confidence in his abilities and is excited to try some of the dodge moves at a tournament this weekend.  He is looking forward to next week’s class!” Gwynne G - Shooting / Dodging Clinic
  • "I loved the individual attention, small group sizes, & lots & lots of touches. Super encouraging for my son, who lacked a little confidence. What a HUGE difference I have seen already just starting the spring season with his local team." C. Ploskuniak (Shooting / Dodging)
