Our Philosophy
At Tenacious Turtles, we do not believe that success in lacrosse is measured by the number of national tournaments played or the hours spent on the field each week. Instead, we focus on:
Fundamental Development:
We prioritize teaching the essential skills of lacrosse, ensuring that each player has a solid foundation. Our comprehensive training programs are designed to develop technical abilities, tactical understanding, and overall athleticism.
Balanced Scheduling:
Unlike the grueling schedules of many club teams, we avoid overloading our players with excessive commitments. Our training sessions are thoughtfully spaced, providing time for rest, recovery, and other important aspects of life, including family time and academics.
Family Orientation:
We believe that a supportive family environment is crucial for the growth and well-being of our players. We encourage family involvement and ensure that our programs are aligned with family values and schedules.
At Tenacious Turtles, we are dedicated to nurturing the next generation of lacrosse players through a balanced, supportive, and development-focused approach. Join us in combating the club lacrosse craze and discover the Tenacious Turtles difference.
"Enrolling my son in the Tenacious Turtles program turned out to be the best decision we ever made for his athletic journey. From the very first session, it was evident that this program was different. The personalized attention, the unwavering commitment to skill development, and the emphasis on holistic growth truly set the Turtles apart. Over the course of his time with the Turtles, my son's progress was nothing short of remarkable. His skills on the field improved significantly, and his understanding of the game deepened. But it wasn't just about his lacrosse abilities. The program's focus on mental resilience, teamwork, and character development transformed him into a well-rounded athlete and an even better person."
The foundation of the Tenacious Turtles Program rests upon the principle of balance, extending across all facets of life, including athletics. In a landscape where the club lacrosse circuit has grown overwhelming and time-consuming, we differentiate ourselves by offering an alternative perspective. While many clubs urge players to forsake other sports in favor of singular commitment, our ethos diverges significantly. At the Tenacious Turtles, we firmly believe in maintaining a healthy equilibrium. As an esteemed member of our close-knit community, we wholeheartedly embrace and encourage the pursuit of multi-sport participation. This commitment to balance has allowed our youth to wholeheartedly engage with the Tenacious Turtles program, dedicating themselves, fostering growth, and deriving genuine enjoyment from their experiences. In a world that often prioritizes specialization, we stand as a beacon of opportunity, enabling athletes to thrive while savoring the enriching journey of multi-faceted development.
