Cougar Select, We have an awesome opportunity for those of you that can not get enough quality lacrosse instruction. They only have a few spots reaminng and they will go quickly!
Lacrosse Position Academies, presented by the Apex High School Coaching Staff
Looking to improve your game with intensive instruction exclusive to your position? This academy is taking a very limited number of players in order to maximize instructional time and “touches” for each player. Players will go through a set curriculum to learn all aspects of their position in our controlled Indoor environment. We will also utilize videotape breakdown of some of our sessions as a teaching tool.
-
Attack and Defense Academy - Only 11 Attackmen and 11 Defensemen will be taken in this program.
-
The players will work separately by position and then together in order to incorporate “live action” reps into the program.
-
Midfield Academy - Only 22 Midfielders will be accepted.
The Attack and Defense Academy will be led by Apex HS Head Coach John Hayden. He will be joined by other coaches in order to maximize instructional time and attention to each player.
The Midfield Academy will be led by long time Apex HS Assistant Coach (and NC State Head Coach) Chip Thurston.
Who? The position Academies are for players in grades 6-9.
When? Tuesdays September 7th- October 19th
Attack/Defense - 5:15-6:35pm
Midfield - 6:40-8:00pm
Location? Dreamsports Center, Apex
Cost? $133 per player

Parents,
We have noticed all of you photographers out there during the tournaments and would love to include any photos you'd like to share on the CougarSelect website. The easiest and preferred way to do this is to upload them via Google's Picasa web album site (http://photos.google.com). If you don't already have an account you can easily create one, it's free. Then simply create an album for each tournament or game and upload your photos. Please make sure the Album's Share property is either Public or unlisted, this allows someone visiting the site to view the photos by following the web links. Once you have an album you wish to share send a link to it to Steve Pritko (spritko@gmail.com). You can get the link by viewing the album in the web browser, and click on the "Link to this album" link on the right hand side. If using Picasa doesn't work for you let me know and we can work something out for any photos you'd like to share and see on our site.
Some examples of such albums can be found on the U12 teams page of the CougarSelect webpage (http://www.cougarselectlax.com/MP/teams/u12.aspx) clicking any of the photos there will take you to a Picasa album. The photos page (http://www.cougarselectlax.com/MP/photos.aspx) also has some slideshows that are automatically generated by Picasa that we can use as well.

The Cougar Select fall program will be very similar to the current spring program. Tournaments selected will be regional, hopefully as close to home as possible. Boys currently playing Cougar Select will have a preference in our selection of new players. Families with multiple children will pay a full fee for the first child and half fee for any additional children. Practices and tournaments will be a approximately 12 Sundays, starting the first Sunday in October. The fee will be dependent on the tournaments selected and that information will be provided prior to the try-outs. We will attend at least three tournaments and host or attend another two play days against other travel teams. This experience of a minimum 5 Sundays of good competition is a great option if your son really wants to play good lacrosse.
This will be open to ALL teams! We plan to have a U11, U13 A&B, U14, U15, High School JV, High School Varsity teams.
Tryout for all teams will be Sunday July 11th. The tryout fee will be $10.00, no fee for returning Cougar Select players.
Stay tuned for Registration information.
