Lacrosse Camps Charleston
Millon Lacrosse is excited to return to beautiful Charleston, South Carolina for the Summer of 2022! This camp will once again be held at the beautiful Citadel. In recent years, South Carolina lacrosse has seen a tremendous amount of growth, and we think it’s only the beginning! Founded in 1994 by former MLL MVP and two-time Team USA member Mark Millon, Millon Lacrosse stands for instruction, period. With over 30,000 athletes coming through our camps we have a wealth of experience and understand how to be safe, organized, and, more than anything, develop the young lacrosse athlete. The camp instructional business is a challenging space and you can’t last over 25 years without doing it right. Please give us a call, we would be happy to share more details on what separates us from the rest.

*Note, because this camp is DAY only there is no specialty clinic. Campers must bring their own lunch to camp each day.
Curriculum
After over 25 years, our curriculum has been proven and refined many times. It is set for all ages and all positions. During the early part of the week we do a large amount of individual skill building and as the week moves on we play games for one reason…to reinforce what was learned during our skill sessions.
