Virtual Series Sessions
Practical game-ready strategies from top coaches
Position-specific training, team systems structure and player development insights
USA Lacrosse offers virtual education sessions from our experienced coaching trainers, national team players and high-level coaches. These pre-recorded sessions are topic-focused and teach you concepts you can put into action with your own players right away. These virtual learning sessions are not part of the certification pathways but offered as additional support to help sharpen your skills as a coach.
A subscription to the virtual sessions is available for purchase for USA Lacrosse members on the E-Learning platform. Log in to your account to access the sessions.
