Blue Hen Lacrosse Camps are built around the philosophy of giving the camper the ultimate lacrosse experience. For over 27 years, our camps have assisted in fostering some of the best players in the High School, College, Club, and Pro Game. Campers will receive instruction from some of the top coaches in the country.

This is an independently run camp and not sponsored by the University of Delaware.

Instructional/Team Camp’s Philosophy
June 28- July 2 and July 6-10 (Ages 8-18)

Three 2 and 1/2 daily instructional sessions ensure that your child will receive the maximum amount of lacrosse instruction. Campers are grouped according to age, size, and skill level. Instructional emphasis will be on positional & skill play in the morning, team concepts in the afternoon, with games played at the end of each session and in the evening. There will be special individual emphasis on face-off and goalie mechanics. The camper to coach ratio will be 6:1 ensuring maximum exposure to the game of lacrosse. Players can attend as individuals. Teams are also encouraged to attend.

LOCATION AND FACILITIES

The camps are located at the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware. The Blue Hen Lacrosse Camp is the perfect camp for the novice, intermediate or advanced player. It is widely regarded as the "Top Instructional Camp in the Nation." Campers are taught by an excellent staff of college & high school coaches along with top collegiate level players. Most of the experienced coaching staff at the Blue Hen Camp have involved on the staff for many of the 26 years the camp has been in existence. ALL CAMPERS WILL STAY IN AIR CONDITIONED DORMS IN THE LAIRD NORTH CAMPUS AREA.
