What
Lacrosse Coaches and Players are saying about Golden
Goal….
“The Golden Goal Lacrosse Camp / Tournament
is a very rewarding addition to our Team Ontario
travel itinerary each season. Each year the players
and coaching staff have been welcomed by coordinators
of the tournament and the facility, who have been
so accommodating in meeting our team needs from
first aid, endless water supply at the fields,
and healthy meals. Having the fields, the dinning
tents, and the Athletes village all within a short
walk to each other was convenient and allowed our
team to bond in a very unique way. The intimate
camp experience really allowed our players to get
great instruction and feedback from elite players
and college coaches during the camp session of
our weekend. Having this facility situated amidst
the Adirondacks is not only breath taking and refreshing;
it truly gives that "camp" feel, which
is unique to every other tournament, and facility
we've gone to. Lena K, Team Ontario coach
"Golden Goal is an incredible facility in a setting that is optimum for
team building. Golden Goal, a secluded setting, many of our young athletes
arrive as individuals, practice, sweat and play hard to leave as a tight
knit unit. The fields are exceptional with a beautiful mountain backdrop. I
would strongly recommend that all teams spend a few days at Golden Goal, it
truly is a great place." Jess B, Team Ontario Coach
“Golden Goal is a state of the art facility!
This incredible venue provides exceptional turf and
grass fields, team lodging and nutritional meals.
The clinical instruction provided by internationally
renowned instructors and Team Canada players was
amazing. In addition, the competitive tournament
allowed for full game situations to be monitored
and appraised by College coaches. This is an incredible
concept and should be endorsed by many, as the Golden
Goal facility has made a major commitment to the
Sport of Lacrosse.”

“Golden Goal provided everything a coach
is looking for. You’ve got a great controlled
environment with little distractions, unreal training
instructors, employees that make you feel like
you’re at home, and competition that challenged
the players. This program was all about learning,
applying, improving, and being able to take lacrosse
to the next level.”
Justiene G
“Golden Goal provided competition that pushed
the players to their limits, and through that competition
we were able to extend these limits and become
even greater lacrosse players. The training sessions
were a great addition rather than just playing
games because it allowed us to improve.”
Shannon K
“From a coaches perspective Golden Goal
is an ideal camp for a lacrosse team. The facilities
are top notch and the staff is friendly and accommodating.

North America. Overall the Golden Goal experience
not only develops great athletes, but creates great
memories.”

in different, more efficient ways than I had previously
been taught.”

by more experienced players who helped me to improve
my defensive abilities. Each coach devoted their
time to ensure that I understood the new skill
we were learning.”

in the training sessions the coaches went over
many different situations and how to react to them.
This really helped because they transferred directly
into the games the following day.”

team to participate in this great learning environment.”
