Book Private Lacrosse Lessons with Coach Colin
Hi, my name is Colin Smith. I am from Littleton, Colorado. I have been playing lacrosse for over 13 years at several different levels. I am primarily an attackman, with some offensive midfielder experience as well. I played varsity at Dakota Ridge High School for 3 years, as well as club lacrosse with Classics Lacrosse and True Colorado. I am now currently a starter at Colorado School of Mines. I am very excited to pass on my knowledge to the next generation of athletes and I can't wait to start training!

About Me:
In High School, I received several honors, including Second Team All-Conference, First Team All-Conference, and Second Team All-State.
In my first year of college, I received the honor of All-Conference Honorable Mention. I am hoping to improve on this in my second year!
How I can help you improve your game:
I am very good at doing individual work with players. I have a lot of drills and exercises that are perfect for gaining individual skills for the offensive mind. I will also do the drills with the trainee to prove that they work and to also improve my game along the way.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
I will start with a quick stretch and warm-up passing. Then we will move on to some shooting drills, which will depend on the player and their skill set. Then we will keep working on certain skills, as I believe repetition is the key to making a habit. Then, I will end the session by giving the trainee things they can do at home to help improve their game.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have only formally coached one year (a fall and spring season), and I served as a volunteer assistant coach. I was mostly pulling players aside individually and telling them how to improve their game. The offense was very productive during these times, and the players succeeded when implementing what I taught into their game.
Best coach I ever had:
The best lacrosse coach I ever played under was Coach Dan Reid, my youth coach from 5th - 8th grade. Coming onto the team, I was scared to have the ball at all, but then he put us through drills that gave me confidence in my ability, and ultimately made me into the player I am today. He was very tough on all of us on the team, but only because he wanted us to be the best.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Something that I believe you should know about me is that I believe that those "tough" coaches can't always get it done. I don't believe in yelling at your kids, so I don't want parents or athletes to worry about that. Sometimes I can be stern, but only in certain situations. I am usually a very laid back person, and that's how I intend to run my training sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
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.
How do I book lessons?
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.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
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!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
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.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
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.
When is the coach available to train?
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.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
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.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
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.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
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!
