About us

Our Mission

Our vision is to first provide a nurturing and fun learning environment for each one of our players to thrive, where all students can reach their best on and off the field.  Our experienced coaching staff will provide each player with the requisite tools and skills to become a more skilled player.

We seek to increase the skill and tactical awareness levels of players in middle and high school.  As former Spirit Eagle coaches, we have a track record of player development and positioning for success at top DI, DII, and DIII colleges.

Our passionate and energetic coaching staff is made up of coaches that have played the sport at the collegiate level and in NEFHA, the top field league in the USA.  They have competed in and won tournaments in the USA and Internationally.
