HOW IT WORKS

There is no club in the entire country like XTEAM. This unique program was carefully created and designed to set players up for the best opportunites, in both lax + life. There are several components we control to make this experience one that prepares your for life.

:: SOLO TRAVELER
Ready for an event but don’t have a chaperone? Don’t worry, we got you! As an XTEAM member you are able to travel SOLO to our events for an additional cost. This cost is usually between $300-$400 and it covers food, hotel, transportation (once at the event) and 24 hour supervision. This is also a GREAT way to save some money! Instead of flying 2 people (player + parent), booking a hotel room, a rental car and paying for food for the weekend, just send your player with us! All you have to do is pay for the SOLO TRAVELER option when registering for an event and book the flight between the stipulated times indicated in our event information.

**In the summer, we create "SOLO ONLY" events to build XTEAM walls around the players. This allows us to remove the players from their outside influences so they are able to breakdown and just focus on themselves (on + off the field). XTEAM also simulates the Division I lacrosse experience, so players are able to really experience what it's like to share a room with teammates, travel as a group, eat together, stay up late in meetings + completing assignments, and to wake up early the next morning for a practice. Most HS lacrosse players think they know what they want, but actually experiencing it gives them a different perspective.

:: BOUNCE PRO COACHES
Our head XTEAM coaches are all called BOUNCE PRO COACHES, meaning they have had 200+ hours of intense training by XTEAM owner + creator, Crista Samaras. These coaches are highly trained to get players better, faster and ready to perform in front of the college coaches. Not only are these professional coaches trained within the XTEAM lacrosse curriculum, but in the BOUNCE "So, be it." mentor program as well. Each coach motivates, inspires, teaches + communicates with her players each season.

:: ESSAYS - REFLECTION
During XTEAM events, players are given nightly writing assignments as a way to express their feelings, emotions, thoughts, fears, goals, etc. These reflective essays help the players figure out who they are as a person, what they want in life + lax, and develop a plan on how to get there.

:: DEDICATION STATION
The common mindset among successful XTEAM members is that they have the dedication and determination to reach their goals. There's the "natural lacrosse player" who has raw talent, but doesn't work hard to figure our who they are + what they want. And then there is the "go-getter lacrosse player" who soaks up the information like a sponge, uses all of their resources, pursues every interest and digs deep to find their way through this big journey. It is those players that get exactly what they want, and it is those players that we fuel with fire!

:: "SPEED OF THE LEADER, DETERMINES THE RATE OF THE PACK"
At XTEAM, you'll definitely hear this more than once. The resources we have are endless, and as your coaches and mentors we want to give you everything you need to rock it out - in lax + in life. We are going to give it to you at the speed you ask for it! YOU are the leader, WE are your pack. Information, resources, feedback - the support is there and you are in control of how you want/need our support.
