Girls' Goalie Coaches' Clinic - February 21, 2010

Led by President/Owner of Lacrosse Northwest, Sarah Tomlinson is taking your suggestions for helping local Oregon lacrosse coaches run successful practices with their goalies "in mind". 

Here are some questions to keep in mind while considering the girls lacrosse goalie coaches clinic:
Do you feel like it is challenging to run your field practice while keeping your goalie actively involved?  If you had extra time as a coach during practice, do you know what drills to run with your goalies on an individual basis as well as with the team?  Is it possible for your goalies to train effectively and independently without out your constant attention?

We have created a girls' lacrosse goalie coaches' clinic based on results from a survey Lacrosse Northwest sent to 120 Oregon Girls' youth and high school coaches and administrators.  The following are the details of the clinic and what we heard you saying:

For Who:  Oregon Girls' Youth - High School Lacrosse Coaches
Clinic Level:  Beginning - Intermediate (Time will be left for more advanced questions)
What?  Combination of "classroom discussion", demos, and hands on activities to teach coaches how to effectively work with their goalies during practices and games.

Time:  10:00am - 12:00pm

Sarah has been playing in goal for 11 years, coaching Lakeridge Girls' High School Goalies for three seasons, as well as in her first season as a goalie coach with Pacific University's DIII women's lacrosse team.  She has built her knowledge from her own experiences playing as well as continuing her professional development through educational seminars and clinics.  We hope you find her knowledge to be useful for your upcoming season!
