Lakers Player Pathway
Player Development
We prepare players for their next level—whether that’s making varsity, excelling in high school, or competing in college. Every season builds on the last, with fundamentals and decision-making at the core of our training.
Athletic Development
We build speed and conditioning right into practices. Players get quicker, stronger, and more durable—so they can perform at their best and stay healthy.
Mental Performance
We help players grow confidence and resilience while they sharpen their skills. They learn how to handle pressure, work through tough moments, and step up as leaders.
OUR APPROACH
Coaching Philosophy
Every moment is a coaching opportunity. We use mistakes and decisions as teachable moments, building confident, accountable athletes who trust the process and grow on and off the field.
Recruiting Philosophy

We guide players and families through the process so they can find a school where they’ll thrive on and off the field.
