The mission of SCOOP Lacrosse is to teach the fundamentals of lacrosse while ensuring that each child has a positive experience learning the game. Via fun games and drills tailored to the beginner and advanced beginner lacrosse player, each li'l SCOOPer will learn (and/or further hone) the ability to SCOOP, cradle, catch, throw, and shoot. In addition to all the skills and drills development, participants will receive education regarding FUNdamentals of the game: player positions, field markings, rules of the game, and basic game strategy. SCOOPERS will really enjoy the creative ways they'll learn about team play and the game of lacrosse.

In addition to outstanding lacrosse instruction tailored to young children, SCOOP provides all equipment for each session. The equipment provided includes a stick with a soft, all-plastic head with a molded pocket and soft balls. The sticks are easy for youngsters to handle and allow more success with scooping, cradling and catching at young ages. The balls are soft plastic and are larger than regulation lacrosse balls, again providing greater ease of handling. Most importantly, the sticks and balls allow increased safety for young Scoopers versus regulation sticks and balls. SCOOP also provides sufficient numbers of goals and "props" for various games played during sessions.
