About Harvest

Testimonials

"I wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for all your hard work at camp this week. Your attention to detail has been superb. My son Alex and his friends thoroughly enjoyed spending the week with you and your coaching staff. That’s all they’ve been talking about and they keep repeating the drills your staff went over with them at camp this week in the yard at home, so I know they were paying attention. I also want to commend you on your enthusiasm while running the camp. It is a great feeling to be able to get up every morning and do what you love for a living, but even more so when you can make a difference in the life of another human being like you have been doing with these campers. Don’t ever stop what you’re doing, it’s nothing short of awesome."

"The way you relate to the kids is something that is very hard to find. Ryan truly loves your camp and training program. He has learned so much from you in the past year that it has made him a much better player and person. As far as I’m concerned Harvest is the BEST in western NY! Again I thank you for all you have given Ryan."

"Thank you for teaching the boys about lacrosse and leadership. Your program has solid values that I believe in, and would like to instill in my children. Thank you for helping me do that. It’s one thing for a parent to talk about values, but another for someone he looks up to and respects, like you. You are doing good things for these boys! Thank you!."

"Having sent my son to several clinics and camps over the years, I must tell you that my son really learned a lot from your clinic. We have invested a lot of time and money over the years and it was refreshing to see him walk off the field with such a smile and sense of pride. He was impressed with your commitment to teach them something valuable. You were very approachable and kept the interaction between you and the players vibrant. As a parent I was impressed with how much time you spent with the boys both before and after the clinic. I was impressed how you continued to answer questions and teach long after the lesson was officially over. You are a model player, coach and person. Thank you so much for your time and good luck to you always."

"Tyler had an amazing experience at your camp! I wanted to thank you and all of the other coaches for your hard work and dedication to the sport and to teaching the many aspects of not only how to play to lacrosse, but how to be an exceptional athlete as well. We have attended many tournaments and have been involved in this sport for the past 10 years and have met all sorts of players, coaches and parents. I appreciate your message of leadership and TEAM! I think it can’t be said often enough!."

"I want to commend you on running an exceptional camp. Many camps have a reputation of just letting the kids scrimmage without focus on fundamentals which are what make great players. Your emphasis on fundamentals and skill development in combination with the teaching of respect, integrity, and courage made it a unique and tremendous experience. Many kids and parents do not realize the benefit of life lessons that come from sport participation but your staff emphasized these important values and enriched the experience for all participants. My boys really enjoyed it. Thanks to you and the entire Harvest staff."

"Best clinic I’ve been to. My shot speed and accuracy increased greatly! Even my passing got better thanks to him! You can tell that he actually wants you to get better and that he actually wants to be there. I would recommend him any day."

"I wanted to let you know that my son Sean had a great time at the camp. He already is planning on returning to your camp next summer. Each day he spoke to me about the word you focused on and could explain it. He was extremely proud of himself for earning his award. Thank you for your emphasis on leading a life with character on and off the lacrosse field. I am glad Sean loves lacrosse and will work hard on the field, but I also want him to work hard in other areas such as school."

"What a GREAT night! Thank you for taking a few hours of your night to be with our boys. Your message was clear and very relevant to not only how the boys should conduct themselves on the lacrosse field, but more importantly, how they should conduct themselves as young men."
