We are meeting with the Rec Therapists over that the San Diego VA on Wednesday to show them all about wheelchair lacrosse.  Hopefully we will get some of those guys to come out and play with us soon.  We’re always looking for some more players!!!

We just got back from our first wheelchair lacrosse camp and it was awesome!!!  We can’t say enough about Adrenaline Lacrosse, the City of San Jose and Far West Wheelchair Sports!  The gear, people and support that we got all weekend was incredible.  We can’t wait to do more with these guys.  We’ve got some great photos and video from the weekend that we need to download, so look back to check it all out later.  We also got some great media coverage from Channel 2 in San Jose, the San Jose Mercury News and a photographer from Inside Lacrosse Magazine!  Here is the link to the news article (Merc article).

We had some great giveaways this weekend!

1. Leo got a Warrior Bag
2. Anthony got a complete stick (Brine head and STX shaft)
3. Anna got a $450 certificate for a ROHO cushion of her choice

On top of the big prizes we had a ton of hats, socks and sweatshirts from Adrenaline Lacrosse and shirts from HeadNorth.

We are starting the camp tomorrow at 9am.  Look forward to pictures and hopefully some video next week.  Wish us luck!!!

We are going to have to skip practice this week.  We’ll be conducting the first wheelchair lacrosse camp up in San Jose this week!  We are really looking forward to it and it should be a fantastic camp.  Look for our photos when we get back.

Be a fan of Wheelchair Lacrosse!

No practice on Thursday 11th due to a church function and we will still have practice on Sunday 14th, but you’ll have to bring your own gear.  We’ll have our chairs for everybody to use, but we are shipping our pads and sticks up to San Jose for the camp.

Registration is filling up quick, so if you plan on making the first camp do it quick.  We’d hate for you to miss the boat. 

Hope to see everybody this Sunday or at the Camp!

We’ll be playing on Thursday (4th) and Sunday (7th) this week at Christ Lutheran Church on Thursday and the 4S Ranch Sports Park on Sunday.  Of course, weather permitted!    We’ve had some great turn-outs recently so we’ve had a lot of fun playing full court on Thursday and half-court on Sunday. 

We hope that we can have everybody come out on Sunday because we’re having an NBC reporter come out to shoot some video and do a piece about Wheelchair Lacrosse and it would be great to do some full court play for them.

As always, please let us know if you are planning on playing with us so that we can make sure that we have enough gear for everybody.  We also need that head count so that we can make sure that we have enough people play.  Nothing is worse than showing up and having only 3 people show up.

Don’t forget about the Camp…there is limited availability so sign up soon on Adrenaline Lacrosse!
