Elwick Lacrosse Academy - Week 4
Having an absolute blast with these athletes from the Seven Oaks School Division - Elwick School. So much natural talent and each week we are seeing huge progress.

Students are learning essential Physical Literacy skills while developing hand/eye coordination, learning the importance of dynamic warm ups prior to competing, and finding their individual confidence through the Creator's Game. Always nice
