June 24-25, 2015:



In 2015, the 3D Lacrosse - California Gold Invitational Camp moved to Oceanside, CA from Danville, CA. The cost had also risen from $325 to $475.



We expected another great event, quality players gear package, 6-7 hours of premier training on day #1 & Gatorade drinks. Our youngest son was excited to try the camp for himself.



Instead of 600+ kids, college level coaches and a great gear package, there were only 200 kids. The gear package consisted of socks, shorts and a t-shirt. This was a far cry from the cleats, duffel bags and heads of years past.



A major part of Day #1 was spent doing "registration." Training sessions did not even start until 11 AM. The training was only 4 hours on the first day - (2) 2 hour sessions. The second day consisted of two games, grouped by High School graduating year.



My son does not play for a 3D Lacrosse team. He found himself standing on the sidelines, watching the 3D Team players showing off. Instead of exhibiting their team skills, the 3D players would shoot every chance they got - bad angles, congested lanes, circus shots, what ever - it was all about showing off. Many players refused to leave the field, some played for the entire game without rotating off the field - for BOTH GAMES. Purely unacceptable for a "showcase" program.



In Danville, the coaches who managed the showcase teams, made sure that the players routinely rotated off of the fields - giving everyone a fair and equitable chance to illustrate their skills. Players that were "ball hogs" were called on it or removed from play. Not the new management.



3D Lacrosse over promoted this camp, over described and hyped it up. In the end, it way under delivered. Overall, this program was a major disappointment.



Save your $500 (not to mention your $1500 for hotel, food, rental car, travel expenses, and parents time off of work). Use that $2,000+ to buy some new gear and take some private lessons from a nationally ranked coach !



This is a MONEY GRAB SCAM. All HYPE!
