Anyone have experience with Pro Lacrosse Camps?

Checking to see if anyone has any experience with the camp. They are offering a $125 discount "early bird" special if you book by December 3rd. It'd be amazingly early in my family's 2020 to be booking July stuff, but given that it looked possibly good, and at a great discount, I wanted to check with people.

If your child is new to the sport it's a good camp (especially with the discount). Tons of drills and they will typically have a celeb type player attend to give instruction and sign kids gear etc as well. It was Paul Rabil for quite a few years and I think it's been Miles Jones the last year or so.

If your kid has been around the sport for awhile and plays at a high level they will be miserable at this camp.

My DD (a rising 6th grader at the time) did it last year with Katie Schwartzmann and really loved the camp. We plan to do it again this year.

Thanks! Very helpful (seems like that might be allowed too often around here, ha).

My son is 8 now, will be 9 at the time of the camp and will be in the middle of his 3rd season. I'll lovingly call him an "enthusiastic learner with a lot of room for growth." If I can convince my wife then maybe it'd be a great opportunity. Don't want it to conflict with the flag football camp he did and enjoyed, though.

My daughter who is a pretty high level middle school travel player got a lot out of this camp. Way more than UMaryland overnight camp or any of the local options (BLC, Next Level etc).

You resurrected a 3 month old thread just to tell us you weren't familiar with the camp?
