Player Development Academy

Our Player Development Academy is a 50-hour training series with two practices per week (Thursdays and Sundays) designed for high school and middle school players who want to strengthen fundamentals and build confidence through consistent, high-repetition instruction. Each session focuses on core skill development, fundamental concepts, and small-sided gameplay that maximizes touches and decision-making under pressure.

The academy provides players with focused, position-specific, and individual skills training in a high-rep setting that helps them enter the upcoming 2026 MSHSL/WIAA/association season sharper, faster, and more confident.

Each player receives a Lakers shooter shirt and a reversible pinnie.

The Player Development Academy combines technical skill work, athletic development, and situational gameplay to build complete, confident players. Training is designed to maximize touches, repetitions, and decision-making through a balance of individual instruction and competitive application.
