Watch out Girl’s Lacrosse in South Florida! Coach John McClain and his Madskillz Lax Club Program will bring so much knowledge, intensity, and passion to this game. Complementing the acquired knowledge from the Saint Andrew’s Program with his 30 years experience, John will bring that core winning philosophy to his girl’s program.

“Being part of the #1 girls lacrosse club in Florida has really helped our daughter not only learn from the best, but be the best. Florida Select put her on the right teams to foster her growth as she was learning a new sport and enabled the opportunity to be seen by and stand out to college coaches.”

“I am so thankful to my Florida Select coaches for recognizing my determination and athleticism, taking a chance on me and then putting in the countless hours teaching me the game. The focus on lax IQ, team work and individual skills (D1) have helped me excel quickly and achieve my goal of committing to play lacrosse in college.”

Florida Select provided our daughter the platform to perform in front of numerous college coaches. The skills that she learned and the confidence that she gained as a member of this program made the long commutes worthwhile. Our daughter found the right college fit and we couldn't be happier. We recommend Florida Select for any aspiring lacrosse player looking to take their talent to the next level.

As the proud parents of a high school junior who verbally committed to the application process at an Ivy League university, we can say with certainty that this result would not be possible without her long time participation in the Florida Select program.  From joining Madskillz in middle school to graduating to Florida Select in high school, our daughter first developed and then sharpened her skillset, learned important life lessons about perseverance and overcoming adversity and made long-lasting friendships. The Florida Select program also provided her with the unmatched opportunity to practice and play with the most talented roster of teammates in the state and to consistently play against the very best club teams in the country in front of all of the top college programs which ultimately resulted in her exciting commitment.  We are thankful and appreciative for all the benefits that came directly from her participation in the Florida Select program.

From the moment my daughter stepped onto the field as a 3rd grader, I knew we had found our forever lacrosse home.  Madskillz/Florida Select is an amazing program that has been such an important part of my family’s life for the past ten years. The dedication and passion of the coaches, especially John McClain, have created an environment that fosters not only athletic development but also personal growth. Over the years, I have watched this program’s unwavering commitment to instilling values like teamwork, sportsmanship, and resilience in every player.  This program has pushed my daughter to be the best player she can be through all the training sessions and guidance.  I have been able to witness tremendous improvement in my daughter’s lacrosse skills over the years but also in her growth as a young adult.  

Another aspect of The Madskillz/Florida Select program that stands out is that this program places a very strong emphasis on academics, and John McClain has consistently reminded my daughter that excelling in sports can go hand in hand with excelling in school. All the hard work on the field has taught my daughter about discipline, time management, perseverance, and goal setting. I know she will carry these important values with her for her entire life.  I would enthusiastically recommend the Madskillz/Florida Select program to all lacrosse players because it is more than a team–it’s a family and a place where dreams do come true.  My daughter has always wanted to play at the collegiate level, and I can honestly say this program helped and nurtured her to make this dream come true.

I have been part of the Madskillz/Florida Select program since I was in 3rd grade.  This program has taught me many things over the years, and it has been such an important part of my life.  When I first joined the program, I was such an inexperienced player, but the coaches who worked with me, especially John McClain, saw potential in me and helped me develop into a skilled and confident lacrosse player. My coaches never gave up on me and pushed me.  Over the years, I have had the opportunity to build strong relationships with my teammates. The way we support each other is exceptional.  We are there for each other through the wins and losses, and this program has taught us to face them all with grace and dignity.  The girls I’ve known for years now have become my sisters, and I have Madskillz/Florida Select to thank for that. This program has taught me how to be a better teammate and person through hard work, discipline, and never giving up.  As I look back over the ten years, I am filled with joy and delight for the values and life lessons I have learned, but I am incredibly grateful for the lifelong friendships I will forever have. I will forever cherish all of these memories I got the opportunity to make.  There are not enough words to say thank you to all my coaches because each one has shaped me into who I am today.  I always wanted to play lacrosse in college, and now my dream is coming true with the guidance this lacrosse program gave me.

I just wanted to personally thank you for putting your Madskillz team together. My daughter has been so excited about the sport and had an amazing time in Orlando with her team and her Dad. I’m not sure who enjoyed it more. I know it is a huge commitment and not always acknowledged, but I want to say thank you for it all!! Great experiences that are memorable.

My daughter LOVED the skills session. In fact, the first thing she said to me when she finished was….” can I do this again?”. She will definitely be back! Thank you!

 

Madskillz is absolutely wonderful; you are doing an amazing job, and my daughter is having a blast and getting great experience.

 

First and foremost, congratulations on a tremendous tourney weekend. We are so thoroughly impressed with you, your vision and your dedication to the journey that we have embarked together.
