Currently an assistant coach with the Jr A Lakers, Conley also suited up for the Cobourg Kodiaks in the MSL last summer and has played professionally in the National Lacrosse League with the Albany Firewolves and New York Riptide. “I’m passionate about teaching and coaching, and I can’t wait to help young athletes grow their skills in a supportive, high-energy environment,” he added.

Running throughout July, the camp offers a mix of sports and activities, with a special focus on daily lacrosse instruction led by Jr A Lakers players and special guest coaches.
