Our AWESOME coaches are dedicated to spreading the growth of lacrosse in Atlanta by providing a place for girls to LEARN, LAUGH + LAX!
// ATL HEAD COACHES: The ATL head coaches have played at the collegiate level. They are the ones who are leading the LAX PRAX, CLINICS and STICK SESHES. Each head coach will have their OWN team and responsible for managing the PLAYER/COACHES.
// ATL COACHES: An ATL coach is required to go through 6 hours of BOUNCE training and has coached for BOUNCE for at least 1 year. Coaches will be assigned to teams during tournaments, run LAX PRAX and STICK SESHES.
// PLAYER/COACHES: Former ATL/XTEAM members in their freshmen or sophomore year are eligible for this role. They are still required to go through 6 hours of BOUNCE training, but will assist in running LAX PRAX and STICK SESHES.
// GUIDES: This is where the community gets involved. This position is for parents + enthusiasts that know little about the sport but want to be involved and keep our members going strong! 2 hours of BOUNCE training is required. GUIDES will be on hand at any event to assist with equipment, warm-ups, substitution, LAX PRAX and STICK SESHES! GUIDES are the SOUL of the club!
// C-LINKS: These individuals will be the heart of the ATL, helping to organize team functions like post-practice and tourney tailgates. Basically, making sure everyone on the field and off, kids and parents feel welcome and are having a great time.
