DME Academy, the premier basketball, soccer, volleyball, and baseball Academy in Daytona, Florida, is expanding its horizons by hosting a lacrosse camp this summer in partnership with Defensive Academy.
DME has gained a reputation for excellence in high school athletics and academics, with top-level coaches, state-of-the-art facilities, and records to match. With the addition of the lacrosse camp, the school aims to provide young athletes with a new and exciting opportunity to develop their skills.
The lacrosse camp will take place over a four-day period, from June 19th to June 22nd, 2023. The camp will be open to boys aged 12-18 who want to excel in the defensive positions of lacrosse. These include long-stick midfielders and defensemen. Participants will receive top-level coaching from professional lacrosse coaches including Kyle Hartzell, who currently plays for the Redwoods Lacrosse Club, is the head coach for the University of Texas and is a USA Gold Medalist. They’ll also utilize DME Academy’s world-class training facilities, dormitory, and cafeteria, and have the opportunity to experience surrounding attractions, like Daytona Beach.
“We’re excited to be branching out into lacrosse,” said Dan Panaggio, Owner and Founder of DME Academy. “We’re always looking for ways to provide our athletes with new opportunities to grow and develop, and lacrosse is a natural fit here in Florida. We’re confident that the camp will be a great success, and we look forward to welcoming young athletes from across the country.”
Registration for the lacrosse camp is now open, and interested athletes can sign up on the DME Academy website. Spaces are limited, so interested parties are encouraged to register as soon as possible.
The Defensive Academy's Overnight Camp Experience will be led by the current Head Coach of The University of Texas, Kyle Hartzell (Redwoods LC), and Tucker Durkin (Atlas Lacrosse Club).
Kyle and Tucker are two of the most decorated defensive players in the professional game today. Each player represents Team USA and has been selected for multiple Pro lacrosse All-Star Appearances.
This Camp is designed for defensemen, LSM's, Defensive Midfielders, and Offensive Midfielders. Players will enjoy comfortable accommodations on a Private campus, full access to meals and nutrition, and off-field experiences that keep the schedule fresh and enjoyable between lacrosse sessions.
Training sessions, drills, film, yoga, strength and conditioning, strategy, and all other lacrosse components will be geared toward getting the most out of defensive players. If you're a defender, or midfielder looking to improve, there isn't a better camp available. Period.
Athletes will enjoy an all-inclusive experience including housing, full access to meals and nutrition, and off-field experiences that keep the schedule fresh and enjoyable between lacrosse sessions. Gameplay, and a custom overnight pinny.
The Defensive Academy is committed to the development of lacrosse players at every level through a world-class curriculum designed from years of college, professional and international experience.
We strive to instill qualities in our athletes that we believe will help them on and off the field. Strategically, our defensive teaching model focuses not just on a few aspects of playing defense, but a holistic approach to the game that includes all aspects and situations a player will find themselves in.
