Box Lacrosse Goalie Looking To Improve His Game

Question: Hi Jon, I am a box lacrosse goalie from (City and Province Witheld) , going into intermediate in 2009. I feel that there isn't really anything that this province can offer me to improve my skills. I am looking to see if there are any camps in Ontario coming up within the next year or so focused on goalies. My thought is that with attending one or two of these camps I will have improved my skills enough to play Junior A in Ontario or out west. I feel that I am almost there skill wise, and I just want to get that little boost I feel that will take me where I want

Answer Hey there Matt. You're on the right track thinking about getting out of your province to improve your skills. Have you found any camps yet to go to?

I'm not too conected in Ontario for box camps. But to be honest, any camp where you are around better goalies will help you. Right now you're a great goalie in your province. but to test yourself you've got to get out of there.

If you contact my friend Jeff Gombar out in BC he can probably help you. Let him know the US guy who lives in Calgary wanted you to get in touch with him. He will be able to help you out in BC and he probably has some contacts in Ontario as well. He knows the Sanderson's out there and I'm sure they have a camp to attend.

Jeff is at www.bclacrosse.com. He is the marketing director. I don't want to post his email here but you can find it right on the home page.

Let me know how it goes. If you'd like to email me directly you can at jonathan@lacrossegoaltending.com

Good luck Matt. Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I was hoping to have more info for you.

Kick ass.
