Camp Description:
This camp is designed specifically for high level players with a desire to play collegiate lacrosse. We have brought in guest coach Bart Sullivan, who is currently the defensive coach at Bellarmine University (NCAA) and former assistant coach at the University of Denver. This is the first time an NCAA coach has been brought in to help teach a camp in British Columbia. Coach Sullivan brings a wealth of expertise which will help all players understand the commitment it takes to play lacrosse after high school.
"I am very excited to have the opportunity to take part in Wild West Lacrosse's first ever College Prep Camp. American schools are continually looking to Canada for recruits who can help their program. I look forward to exposing these young athletes to the expectations they will be expected to meet if they wish to pursue a College career and am eager to answer any questions to help get young athletes on the right track."
Coach Sullivan.
