Testimonials
"I just want to give the Connecticut Valley lacrosse program a very strong endorsement; ##### participated in this program last summer and fall and I found the program to be very professional, the coaching was high quality, and the coaches truly care about the players and helping them improve their skills. In addition, they were very helpful in assisting ##### with the college recruiting processes (advise, recommendations, phone calls to college coaches, etc.). I believe that their efforts were directly related to ##### being recruited by Clark University. Unlike some local programs that either have too many teams or the coaches have attitude issues (no names...), the CVL program is really tailored to truly meet the needs of the players in focused, individualized way. I highly recommend this program. "

"...Happy New Year. I wanted to pass along an update on ##### and also express our sincere thanks for all of your help...As part of his enrollment at Suffield Academy, his coach, Dave Pillsbury, secured an invite to the NE top 150 for him. #### played some of his best lacrosse over those three days. As a result, he was actively recruited by a number of very good schools...Lisa and I can't thank you and your staff enough for all of the on and off field help. Coach Crozier, you were the first person we discussed the benefits of a PG year with. That got the ball rolling for us and it could not have worked out any better for #####. He has had the opportunity to mature academically as well as personally. In addition he will be attending one of the premiere liberal arts colleges in the country. We wish you the best of luck in the upcoming season and continuing success growing the CT Valley program!"

"I was VERY impressed with the Connecticut Valley Lacrosse Program. We were looking for a good program to enroll our upcoming senior to ensure he had the visibility to college coaches, while improving his skills. The experience was well beyond our expectations. Matt Ramsay and the coaching staff were great. They knew each players qualities, coached them on their needs to improve and put them in a position to succeed. They truly cared for each player and their teams’ success. The marketing summary for each player was a bonus. Not only do they summarize each upcoming senior’s profile, they send an impressive booklet to each college coach across the country. They networked and ensured the boys were introduced and matched with the appropriate coaches aligned to the players level of experience. The number of players that have been recruited to Division I, II and III schools is very impressive. Hands down, this is truly a top notch organization that I am proud we had the opportunity to experience firsthand."

"Just wanted to say thank you for all of the info from the meeting last night. You guys did a great job covering everything and as a parent, I wanted to let you know how appreciated it is! I tried to find you after getting the gear but things were crazy and I was exhausted as we had my daughters college graduation Saturday and her party day yesterday so after Brandon met the new goalie coach we took off. I am so happy to have him part of your league and very thankful for your professionalism and communication. You guys are the best!"

"We would highly recommend the Connecticut Valley Lacrosse program for players seeking to take their game to the next level. Our experience has found that the Connecticut Valley coaches/staff, all of which play (or have played) collegiate lacrosse, are committed to ensure that each player learns the fundamentals of the game and reach their highest potential. The coaches were always positive and motivated players to be the best and also helped guide players through the college recruiting process.
The Connecticut Valley Lacrosse teams are made up of players from many different schools. Being part of this program not only has offered our son the opportunity to gain a better understanding of the game and gain confidence on and off the field, he has also developed lasting friendships. The tournaments are a great experience and a lot of fun for both the players and the parents. We have enjoyed being a part of the "Connecticut Valley Family" and have had the pleasure of getting to know many nice families and traveling with them to the tournaments. Thanks again for an amazing lacrosse experience!"

"Our experience with Connecticut Valley Lacrosse was great from the moment our son, Logan, stepped foot on the field for their Fall Ball Program in September of 2013. From the beginning, we were impressed with the thorough E-Mail communication about upcoming lacrosse events and the college lacrosse recruiting process. Additionally, we were pleased that we received detailed E-Mail reports on the team's perforamnce at the various tournaments that they participated in. This past Summer, we saw first hand the attention that the coaches placed on skill development and sportsmanship. Win or lose, the coaches always had the team meeting following each game to review the team's performance on the field. It was clear that the coaches were committed to making sure that the players were getting the most out of their experience. Coach Ramsay played a critical role in the college recruiting process for our son, Logan. He was in regular touch with the coaches of the colleges that we identified were a good academic fit for Logan. We are pleased that the will be continuing his education and lacrosse career at Division III, Lynchburg College, in Virginia."

"Connecticut Valley turned me into the player I am today. I am so grateful of the coaching and recruiting assistance I have received from the staff, and will continue to utilize everything I have learned from this program. Without the help of this club I wouldn't have had the college options I was presented with this year. It made my life much less stressful and easier to find a home for the next 4 years!! Thanks again for everything."
