"We could not be happier to have Maverik’s support and are excited to give our campers the opportunity to learn from some of the best players in the world,” said Steve Anderson. “Maverik and its athletes are true ambassadors of our sport and their efforts to grow lacrosse are commendable.”
Xcelerate prides itself on challenging campers to improve their skills and overall team play. Xcelerate’s coaching staff evaluates the talent levels of all of its campers the first day of camp and places them into smaller groups of similar skill levels and age groups to provide them with individual and team instruction. Throughout the camp week, campers build on their knowledge and gain confidence in their game, while having a lot of fun in the process. Every field position is covered at Xcelerate’s camps: Attack, Midfield, Face-Off, Defense, and Goalie.
“We are committed as a company to sharing our knowledge of lacrosse and growing the game of lacrosse nationally as well as internationally," said John Gagliardi, founder and President of Maverik Lacrosse. "Steve and his staffs dedication to helping kids and growing the sport of lacrosse in non-traditional areas of the country is what attracted us to partner with Xcelerate."
