Summer lacrosse camps leader GameBreaker Lacrosse has published their 2011 summer lacrosse camp schedule. Over 5,000 lacrosse players attend these camps annually to get better, make friends, and have fun. Overnight and day lacrosse camps are offered.

Lacrosse is the fastest growing team sport in the country with over 300,000 youth players and 225,000 high school players, according to US Lacrosse. Many coaches appreciate the role that camp plays in the development of team members. “Teams are developed in the season, while players are developed in the summer,” according to Chris Bulger, the President of GameBreaker Lacrosse Camps. This year, over 100,000 players will attend a summer lacrosse camp for boys or girls.

As the sport of lacrosse has grown, GameBreaker has expanded geographically to accommodate for new players in emerging lacrosse states. “Lacrosse is not longer just an east coast sport,” comments Taylor Nissi, GameBreaker’s Marketing Coordinator. “The national growth of lacrosse has been staggering and we are responding to coaches in these new areas who are in search of the expert coaching that we provide.”

Get Better This Summer!


(Vocus/PRWEB) February 25, 2011

One of the summer tennis camps leaders adidas Tennis has published their 2011 summer tennis camp schedule. Over 2,000 tennis players attend these camps annually to get better, make friends, and have fun. Overnight and day tennis camps are offered.

The adidas Tennis Camps have a unique balance between instruction and match/point play at their camps, providing campers with the opportunity to learn new skills while also gaining important match experience. University of Wisconsin Head Men’s Tennis Coach Greg Van Emburgh, former professional tennis player and adidas Tennis Camps Director for the UW Madison tennis camp, says “summer tennis camp provides a great opportunity for each player to improve their individual skills in a learning environment that is both fun and challenging.”

Tennis is considered by many to be the “sport of a lifetime.” We try to give our campers an amazing experience with both learning and fun that makes them want to continue to play the sport for years to come. Many coaches appreciate the role that camp plays in the development of individual junior tennis players. The repetition that each person received while at camp really helps to create the proper habits on the tennis court. As adidas Tennis Camps President Charley Biggs stated, “Our goal is to make sure each camper learns the proper technique for all strokes and leaves camp with a greater confidence in their tennis game.” As the adidas Tennis Camps have grown, we have found it necessary to add more sessions at most of our locations to accommodate our families desire to attend multiple weeks.

Scots Ready to Jet2 Cyprus This Summer

Scots Ready to Jet2 Cyprus This Summer










(Vocus/PRWEB) March 28, 2011

Jet2.com is ready for their first flights from new Glasgow base with Cyprus proving popular

The 31st March 2011 will see the first flights from Jet2.com take off with Cyprus likely to be one of the most popular destinations.

Paphos in Cyprus is one of seven destinations to be offered from Glasgow. The choice of destinations was designed to reflect the interests and trends in the market with year round favourites like Spain, France and Cyprus joined by hotspots like Turkey and the Algarve.

A Luxury Destination

Cyprus’ position towards the African continent has long made it a popular destination for luxury holidays in the sun. The complement of ancient architecture and modern complexes ensures that visitors to the island enjoy the best of both worlds.

The island also holds a certain mysticism, no doubt inspired by the mythology that clings to the country. This can be credited to the rather fragmented past of Cyprus with 35% of the country still under Turkish rule.

“The people of Glasgow love Spain and Cyprus”

It might also be the allure of the beaches that attracts many tourists to return to Cyprus each year. Whatever the reason, it is striking a chord with the people of Glasgow. Jet2.com managing director, Ian Doubtfire, has confirmed this popularity, along with Spain. He said:

“The people of Glasgow love Spain and Cyprus and the customer feedback is very positive. We will offer people a great choice of holiday destinations, low fares, a generous 22kg baggage allowance, a loyalty scheme, allocated seating on all flights and convenient flight times.”

Officials at Glasgow Airport have also been encouraged by the initial interest in flights from Jet2.com. Amanda McMillan, the Airport boss, said:

“I’ve been very encouraged by the strong uptake on flights to the seven destinations on offer.”

Glasgow will be the eighth base that Jet2.com fly from and they offer cheap flights to Cyprus to both Paphos and Larnaca; giving customers access to the whole island.

Jet2.com has a number of cheap flights to Cyprus from Glasgow available. Prices start from £69.99 one way, including taxes.
