SARATOGA SPRINGS — Established in 2011 in Garden City, Long Island, a hot bed for talented lacrosse players, Medusa Lacrosse is continuing their expansion upstate into Saratoga. Founded by two sisters, Jackie and Alex Fiore, Medusa Lacrosse aims to teach young athletes the fundamentals of the game. And Jackie and Alex certainly know them – both sisters played on top-tier NCAA Division I programs, Boston College and Princeton University, respectively.
Next month, August 15-18, Medusa Lacrosse is hosting their summer “Little Laxers” clinic at the East Side Rec in Saratoga, located on Lake Avenue. The camp is open to both boys and girls ages pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The format is simple, the first hour will focus on skill development, the last 30 minutes will be scrimmages.
While Medusa Lacrosse has operated for over a decade, their “Little Laxers” program in Saratoga first ran in 2021. However, it was an instant success. Just ask Jill, a Saratoga mother of a three-year-old, “our daughter grew so much as a player on and off the field. As one of the youngest players we were worried she would get lost in the shuffle. Jackie and the entire Medusa coaching staff went above and beyond for every player. They not only taught fundamental principles of lacrosse for beginners, but instilled focused practice and skill building throughout the entire clinic. As a former lacrosse player myself, it was important for my daughter to learn from someone with the right experience. I am so glad Jackie and the team made the decision to share their expertise with the youth of Saratoga.”
