Big Dog Lacrosse's philosophy emphasizes important lifelong lessons that transcend the playing field. Our coaches and staff understand the mission and believe that success lies beyond wins and losses and more in the development of the player. Our goal is to develop a L.E.A.D.E.R. philosophy in all the players involved with our programs. To be a L.E.A.D.E.R., we instill the life long values of: L eadership - take command of your destiny, setting a good example E ducation - take every opportunity to learn and teach others your knowledge A ttitude - develop a never give up attitude D iscipline - achieving goals and helping others achieve their goals E ffort - always give 110% on and off the field R espect - respect the people helping you, they want you to succeed We focuses on individual and overall team skills to create a positive, competitive, and most importantly a motivated learning environment. We look for players who show an ability to be coached and those who are ready to commit to themselves and to the sport. We introduce new concepts and continually reinforce individual and team techniques.
