Coaching |
|
Since NoVa West only focuses on one elite
team, it is coached by a former H.S. Coach of the Year,
Former Division I LSM Standout and H.S.
Assistant Coach,
Assistant Coach of Adrian College and several
Division I, II and III players. |

FuZe Lacrosse has some quality coaches
however with the high volume of teams these
coaches are spread thin.
|
|
= Caution |
|
|
MadLax has so many teams it is hard to
determine who you would be coached by.
The Orange "Premier Team" is coached by
quality coaching but it goes down after
that. |

Recruiting Assistance |
|
NoVa West is very proven in this area, in
only three short years it has helped place
23 of its players in college programs,
9 of those in division 1 opportunities.
NoVa West will work with each of it's
families on and individual recruiting plan
and contact coaches on players behalves.
NoVa West also builds a very complete team
media guide each year which is sent to many
college coaches. |

Since FuZe has evolved from the old Loudoun
Champ Camp team they have not had a great

MadLax players from the premier "Orange"
team have had very good success being placed in
college programs. If you are not on that
premier team your exposure level is not that
great. MadLax however
charges a separate fee for recruiting
assistance. |

Individual Attention |
|
NoVa West's mission is to take it's 24
players each year and do more for them than
any other program. By sticking to the
one team philosophy these 24 players get the
best summer opportunity available. |

FuZe has now expanded to 3 High School teams
which liquidates the talent of players, the
coaches working with them and the attention
that can be spent on each individual player. |

MadLax has now expanded to 10+ Highs School
teams which liquidates the talent of

coaching and individual attention which is
why they must charge for recruiting
assistance. |

Practices |

Defenders
Beware |
|
NoVa west will only deploy man to man
defense in the summer. We have spoke
to college coaches who have said when they
see a team playing zone during the summer
they will actually leave for another game
because it shows them nothing. |
|
|
= Preferred |
|
|
FuZe Lacrosse regularly deploys a zone
defense which does not showcase the talents
of a defensive player. |
