It all goes back to defining success for your Program. The moments that make you proud as an organization reflect your definition for success within your organization.
Here’s what makes us at FLG proud:
When a player asks a coach a detailed question about their specific position, “Coach, how can I prevent my attacker from getting underneath me without getting a push call?” This shows a player really wants to get better. Proactively asking questions is a sure way to develop that intellect for the game that’s so important.
When a player does their recruiting homework after asking them only once. “Sarah, please make sure to go onto Lacrosse Recruits and favorite 50 schools.” “You got it, coach!” This shows us a player wants to get recruited and do everything they can to help themselves through their recruiting process.
When we get word that one of our FLG Select Players or FLG Alumni gets voted captain of their respective Middle, High School, College, or Professional team. “Just wanted to drop a quick line to say hello and share the good news that Mark was chosen as one of the captains for UNC lacrosse. Incase you haven’t read about it already. We are very excited and proud of him and love to share the news with everyone who shares in this accomplishment.” That was a message we received from the mother of Mark Rizzo, captain of the UNC Men’s Lacrosse team. Mark’s an FLG Alumni who currently works with our Program when he’s home from school. Mark’s a great player and an even better young man.
FLG Alumni, Mark Rizzo, was voted Captain of the University of North Carolina Men’s Lacrosse Team
When our parents send us an article showing FLG player involvement in their school or community. It makes us proud to see player’s in our Program taking time out of their week to do something productive within their community or for an organization their passionate about.
