FLG Takes Learning Lacrosse to the Next Level with its Fusion Program
At its most basic level, learning the sport of lacrosse should be fun and engaging; children should be given the opportunity to expand their horizons, hone in on important, fundamental skills, and have an enjoyable experience that helps them grow fond of the sport. The FLG Fusion program is a new, innovative way to teach lacrosse to elementary and middle school aged children. Through the fusion of multi-sport concepts, rules, and techniques, children remain attentive while developing undiscovered aspects of their game. 
The concept of FLG Fusion is simple: less talking, more playing. Rather than drills that require long explanations from coaches, the program incorporates a variety of highly active, game-based drills that evoke a competitive atmosphere. The games and drills change from week to week to keep children interested and engaged in the curriculum.
“Constant interruptions from coaches can be distracting and discouraging to young athletes,” said Corey Winkoff, program director at FLG. “The free flow of play, offered by the FLG Fusion program, lets children learn from their mistakes and get right back into the game.”
The FLG Fusion program breeds success through competition: its fast-paced game has children playing at 100% for the entire session. Children in this program are in a fun environment, which lets them perform freely and creatively. The lack of inhibition to learn and excel in lacrosse allows young athletes to develop skills and play at a level they never thought was possible.
