Book Private Lacrosse Lessons with Coach Benjamin

I am a career educator (outdoor and environmental education) with extensive experience working with youth aged 6 to high school. I played competitive lacrosse in high school and college, including two MCLA National Championship bids in 2015 and 2016. After graduating college I coached a local high school team in Chesterton, Indiana before moving to California. I am looking to mentor and train lacrosse players in the Detroit area and help them meet their goals.

About Me:

I was a part of the first lacrosse program at my high school in California and dove in deep to the world of lacrosse. I still identify with the scrappy hardworking style of play of that team. I love the sport and I continued to play on the club team at Purdue. We were a competitive team in our conference and I played all four years. We travelled to two MCLA National Championship tournaments and played hard against the National Champions both years. I played Midfield and took Face-offs for my whole career.

After graduating I wanted to continue my involvement in the sport and found a local high school team (Chesterton, Indiana) to coach.

How I can help you improve your game:

I want to help players polish their fundamentals with simple drills and apply them in more focused situations that translate to real game scenarios.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

Warm up, heavy fundamentals work: groundballs, dodging, long passes/clears, shooting, stick skills, defense, etc. Building on those skills into more complex practical drills. Can include endurance and agility training if requested. I welcome player/parent input on areas of focus.

Career summary and accomplishments:

Head Coach of Chesterton High School Lacrosse

Best coach I ever had:

All of my best coaches took a personal interest in my development and helped me take ownership of my training and improvement.

What athletes and parents should know about me:

Frequently Asked Questions

If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.

Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.

Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!

We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.

Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.

Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.

The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.

Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.

AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.

At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
