Sports Camp
Can we come to camp if we’ve never played netball and/or lacrosse?
Yes of course! We often have complete beginners of all ages but we also cater for girls right up to county level. Our experienced staff can alter the schedule to suit a range of abilities and ensure that everyone is taught something new and stretched to achieve their potential.
When and where is camp?
Camps are held at Mill Hill School. The postcode is NW7 1QA. Drop off and pick up is in the car park in front of the sports centre.
Netball camp runs from 9am to 12pm and Lacrosse camp runs from 9.15am to 12.15pm.
What should we wear?
Please wear proper, supportive trainers for camp. This will likely be the most sport your daughter has ever done in one day and it is so important to look after your feet! Please do not wear what I call fashion trainers as these can be bad for your feet, knees and general posture. You must wear clothes appropriate for doing sport. Most girls prefer not to wear their school PE kits but simply opt for shorts and t-shirt or leggings and a jumper. It is important to be prepared for all weather. We will continue to play in the rain! If it is hot, then please be prepared with hat, suncream and loose and light clothing.
What do we need to bring to camp?
You should bring high energy, healthy snacks and a refillable water bottle. Lacrosse players will need a mouthguard and a lacrosse stick. I can lend sticks if you do not have.
How much is camp?
Camp is £35 per morning session. Or £30 per morning if you book 5 or more sessions.
Can we book for a half day?
No. We only accept full day bookings. Of course, if you need to pick up your daughter a little early or drop her off a little late for an appointment or something similar then we can of course be accommodating but I am afraid the day rate will still apply. This is simply due to staffing ratios and costs.
Lacrosse Club
How do we know which group we should be in?
Amy will allocate you into the correct group usually organised by year group. Occasionally girls will play a year up.
Are there any matches? When will these take place?
Yes! We have two senior women's teams which the Y11, Y12 and Y13 girls usually play in. We also have U15 and U13 league teams as well as friendly teams at U11, U12 and U14 level.
We play friendlies throughout the season as well as a number of junior tournaments… we are always looking for new competition and like to challenge ourselves both in the normal winter lacrosse season as well as the summer term. Matches usually take place on Sundays and we usually have to travel for these. The other clubs are not that local to us!!!
Do I need to buy my own lacrosse stick if I don’t already have one?
You don’t have to! At least not straight away. If you are new to the game we suggest you borrow for a few weeks first and make sure that you love the game and that you love us! Then we can help you to choose a stick!
Do we have to wear goggles?
Until the English Lacrosse Association makes it compulsory we will simply strongly encourage our players to wear goggles. In reality we think it won’t be long until we HAVE to wear them so it is certainly worth getting used to it.
