Book Private Lacrosse Lessons with Coach Ryan
I was always seen as the undersized player, I loved it. It provided me with the 'chip on my shoulder' that allowed me to play at the next level. I found that I played my best lacrosse when I came into every game and practice fully prepared. My goal is to provide young players with the tools and tips they need to feel confident on the field. Lets find their "chip". Thank you for your consideration.

About Me:
Central Bucks East High School Junior and Senior
After 16 years of lacrosse experience, I still cannot seem to part with this amazing game. I played attack throughout my youth, club, and high school career. I was a member of the Dukes Lacrosse Club Team for 4 years. I started for 4 years and was a Junior and Senior captain at Central Bucks East High School. In 2019, I switched to a two-way midfielder at the collegiate level. I was a senior captain of the Sacred Heart Men's Division 1 lacrosse team.
How I can help you improve your game:
The game of lacrosse becomes faster and faster every year. This is why I believe that sharpening both fundamental skills and lacrosse IQ are equally important. I will facilitate in-game scenario's to help my athletes become comfortable in a variety of environments.
My goal is to motivate players to play to their strengths.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Training sessions will begin with warming up the sticks with partner passing. It will then be divided up into 4 quarters. The first quarter focuses on stick work and position-specific fundamentals. Quarter two will be focused on proper footwork and technique. This includes offensive dodging with cone work and/or defensive approaches and recoveries. Third quarter is a shooting focus for offense and/or a continuation of defensive slide scheme approaches, on-ball body positioning, and off-ball body positioning. Quarter four is a combination and application of the previous quarters. This includes dodges into a shot, step down shooting, "dummy dodges", slide reading (hedges) etc.
I am happy to focus more time in certain areas, please let me know this in advance. Sessions are one hour.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Assistant coach for the New Canaan High School 8th grade youth team. Volunteer for CBAA youth lacrosse clinics and tournaments. I have also spent a lifetime warming up goalies from youth to division 1.
Best coach I ever had:
Joey Sankey did several private lessons with me when I was 13 years old. I utilized the dodges from those clinics for the rest of my career. It was the greatest personalized instruction from a coach/current player.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I have both offensive and defensive experience and can tailor lessons based on the needs of each individual player. I not only want to help develop players skills, but I want to serve as a mentor for any concerns they might have about the recruiting process, college level chalk talks, school choices, etc.

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 find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
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!
