In an effort to continue the enhancement of our training experience for 2017-2018 Venom is continuing our structure of a year-long enrollment based system for our teams. This move stems from your feedback in an effort to keep our teams together and provide a longer training period for players to mesh with their teams and coaches before summer competition.
Additionally, Coach Eric Hall, formerly the Head Coach of the Atlee Raiders, and currently the head coach of the James River Rapids will be taking over as the Middle & Elementary School Director. In this role he will be responsible for the youth curriculum, planning and executing Elementary and Middle School practices, and training of coaches for each team.
In the fall, Venom will host a two weekend evaluation process that will provide the basis for our teams for the year. Fall will consist of once a week practices on Sunday, a local play-day in October when possible, and the Rumble in Richmond November 5th and 6th or an alternative tournament. During the fall we recommend that Venom players not involved in a fall sport participate in their local rec or fall ball league.
In the winter we will plug our Venom players into box lacrosse programs where they will receive box lacrosse training and game play. The number of touches and skills learned during box lacrosse will provide them a competitive advantage when we get back outside in the spring and summer.
In the spring elementary and middle school teams will continue weekend training while high school players will not have training as to not interfere or pose risk of injury while they are playing with their HS teams. During the Spring we recommend that Venom players participate within their middle school, high school or local rec teams. Exceptions may be made based on spring team goals.
Our summer schedule will include a 4 day boot camp followed by twice a week practices into June for youth players, and into July for HS players. Each team will participate in 3 tournaments.
