Trent B. - Camper This camp was a great measure of how I compare against other players in my skill and age range. Looking around at players with equal talent definitely pushed me to try and play even harder.
Erik D. - Camper This camp was very intense but also fun. I learned a lot about lacrosse and met some new friends. Hopefully I can come back next year and win a second fastest shot contest!
Jerry S. - Parent We have had good experiences with GameBreaker Lacrosse camps in the past and this camp was run just as flawless. The coaching was superb and my son had a great time as usual.
