Coach Virtual Education Sessions

Live, Interactive Training

USA Lacrosse's virtual education sessions are topic-specific, pre-recorded presentations led by our experienced coaching trainers, National Team players, and high-level coaches. They get straight to the point in each session, focusing on quickly teaching one concept that you can put into action with your own players right away. Topics can range from individual skills like helping your goalie make more saves to team concepts like how to use transition play to generate more offense.

These virtual learning sessions are not part of the certification pathways but offered as additional support to help sharpen your skills as a coach.
