Under 19's (Centex) Regional Programme

Players who attend the regional programme are deemed to have the potential to represent England at Lacrosse at Under 19 level and/or higher but are currently performing at a level just below that.  Players are invited onto the programme after a nomination by a lacrosse teacher/coach.

A player’s progress is carefully monitored at every available opportunity the coaches may have to observe the player in action.  Feedback is constant and profiles of players are maintained in order to document their progress and assist with their development.  As and when a player leaves the programme they are advised about what further opportunities are available to them so that they are able to continue playing the sport and developing if they wish to.

Training for Regional Centex takes place a minimum of three times a year in August, February and April. Other training can include fixtures and competitions, in addition to further general practice in the build up to important events.

Training includes areas of technical, tactical and physical play.  There are also talks, some from outside specialists, about such topics as training, diet and nutrition.  General discussions are regularly held in order to help players balance their many commitments whilst aspiring to play representative lacrosse.  Coaches can always be contacted during and outside of the training, should a player have a query/concern.
