WELCOME TO NEMS CLUB LACROSSE
CLINIC AND TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES
NEMS has arranged for several great opportunities to prepare mentally and physically for lacrosse season. I have personally attended and helped plan these programs so that lacrosse players have every opportunity to succeed. The clinic is one of the best I've ever seen. I attended the fall session in Catonsville with Amy Appelt Slade (UMBC D1 Head Coach) and Jessy Morgan (George Mason D1 Head Coach) and was blown away and asked them to come to Harford County.
I also took time to sit down and discuss training and challenges athletes faced today with Bryan Woolson, Johns Hopkins Women’s Lacrosse Strength and Conditioning Coach. During a conversation with Bryan, he stated “Quite honestly my #1 concern is getting my athletes prepared and ready for rigorous demands of being a college athlete. We follow to a T the protocols for ACL prevention in our programming and are constantly preaching the importance of year round training to help reduce injury rates."
He also provided me with the following stats and information - "Females are 9x more likely to tear their ACL and an additional 3x more likely due to poor training. I’m not here to make you sweat, breath heavy and throw up every time you step into my facility. That is not proper training. My job is to sit down with you, set realistic goals, create a plan of action and help players work hard to reach our set goals.”
We are so fortunate to have so many top-notch resources in our backyard. Please don’t take them for granted. I encourage you to jump on these opportunities. Many have limited spots available. See the dates and times below. Please do not wait to sign up.

Congratulations to the 2019 NEMS TEAM
|
It is my honor and privilege to announce the NEMS 2019 college commitments.
This team is the epitome of the NEMS core values of team first and self-belief. They have shown an unwavering commitment to the program, some since the 5th grade, and as we added more teammates throughout the years the same values were taught and embraced by the new members. All the players pursued their dream of having offers to play lacrosse at a higher level with steadfast determination. They were dedicated to each other. When players began to commit to college programs, each teammate continued to attend all practices, challenge each other during drills, support each other during hard conditioning days and showcase each other during tournament games. Parents and coaches watched the NEMS 2019 team close the goal gap on competitors and are so proud of their determination. Although wins and losses are important, what was more inspiring to watch was their growth in mental toughness and perseverance. These traits will serve them well as they take the next step in their academic and lacrosse careers. I am confident that NEMS 2019 will succeed in this next stage of their lives. Whatever these young ladies set their minds to they will achieve. It has been a pleasure coaching this group of players and I look forward to seeing them succeed in the future. I hope to see many return to NEMS as coaches and mentors to the next generation of players. Best of luck to all the players in the future, you will be missed!
