COACHES
. Coach J.J. Pearl will head up the Breakers U11 and U15 teams. JJ is an 3 time All American goalie from Penn State University. He also played for the Baltimore Thunder and Green Turtle Lacrosse Club where he was a 4x USCLA All Club Goalie. Most recently he competed and helped win a Bronze Medal for the USA at the World Indoor Lacrosse Championships in May, 2007. J.J. currently coaches youth lacrosse for the Freedom Lacrosse program.
J.J. will be assisted by Coach Ray Schulmeyer at the U15 level. Ray is a former lacrosse player at Cornell University. He has coached boys and girls lacrosse at Carroll Manor for the last 15 years. He is a founder of the Baltimore Bayhawks and the Breakers Lacrosse Club. The goal of the coaches will be to help develop each player individually and mold them into a competitive team. While individual instruction will not be neglected, a significant amount of time will be dedicated to team concepts. It is our goal to develop and maintain a group of players as they progress from the Middle School teams to the High School level.
More Coach's Bios to be added.
SCHEDULE
The U11, U13 and U15 teams will compete in three to four tournaments over the summer. Practices will be held twice in the fall, monthly for February, March, April and May; then weekly from early June through the final tournament. It is anticipated that all players will make a commitment to the program. The development of each player is significantly dependent on the dedication of his teammates. A tentative schedule is below:
