Field Hockey Camps - Field Hockey Review Angela W.

I loved staying overnight at this camp! I stayed in the dorm with two girls I have never met, and we all became really good friends by the end of camp. We have even planned on dorming together next year and doing the camp again. I loved the coaches, meals, and games that we played to strengthen our skills.

I loved my experience at the GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp. I loved all of my coaches, friends, staff, and meals while I was there. I cannot believe how incredible the prizes were as I received sunglasses and so many t-shirts throughout the entire camp. I highly recommend this camp if you are interested in field hockey and want to make lifelong friends!

Field Hockey Camps - Field Hockey Review Christian M.

My daughter did not stop talking about how great this camp was. She made so many new friends throughout the week, and received so any prizes they barely fit in the car! She loved the meals she ate there and did not complain around one. I cannot believe how excited she was to go back next summer and be able to spend more time with her new friends!

I attended GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp to refine my skills during the offseason. The camp exceeded my expectations in every way. The coaching staff provided personalized feedback and tailored drills to address specific areas of improvement. The competitive yet supportive atmosphere pushed me to challenge myself and strive for excellence. I left the camp feeling more confident in my abilities and ready to tackle the upcoming season.

Field Hockey Camps - Field Hockey Review Sofia T.

My son informed me that the coaching at this camp was the best coaching he has ever received. The coaches were particularly good at adapting the program to players of all skill levels. This year was only his second year playing lacrosse and GameBreaker did a wonderful job making him feel comfortable.
