IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: 1st Annual ELITE Faceoff Clinic
The 1st Annual Faceoff Clinic was a success. The Gordon Institute would like to thank Greg Furshman (Stevenson University), Ben DeFelice (Towson University), Taylor Marino (UMBC), Bryan Kelly (Calvert Hall – MIAA), Frank Kelly (Calvert Hall – MIAA), Brian Abbott (LOYOLA BLAKEFIELD – MIAA) and Mr. Dave Allan for sharing their experience, tips and techniques. The attendees traveled from New York, Delaware, Virginia and DC to learn from some of the brightest young faceoff coaches in lacrosse. 
The energy was high, the questions were flowing and the live demos were an awesome way to learn by doing, trying and working on the techniques that are common in today’s game. Over 300 hundred youth and high school level lacrosse coaches were invited and we hope to have an even better turnout for our future lacrosse clinics.
Stay tuned to www.thegordoninstitute.com for more information on our ELITE Lacrosse Series and sport specific training programs. AND – a SPECIAL THANK YOU to Qdoba for sponsoring our clinic luncheon. The food was a huge hit and we’ll be sure to cater all of our future events through the folks at Qdoba.
Learn how coach Ben DeFelice (Towson University) adjusts to different surfaces when facing off.
