If we can see it, we can fix it. This is a breakthrough for coaches and lacrosse player skill development. The shooting clinics we conducted in Millersville, MD at the Mid-Atlantic Sports Academy included an initial evaluation of the athlete’s current shooting motion with a side by side analysis of the proper mechanics. We captured the motion using the facilities slow motion video technology and within minutes analyzed the slow motion video for the athlete. The feedback from the parents was overwhelmingly positive.”
