Buffalo Bandits announce youth lacrosse clinics

Buffalo Bandits forward Tracey Kelusky will once again conduct three separate “Play Like the Pros” lacrosse clinics at First Niagara Center this spring for children ages 8 to 16 years old.

The goal of the clinic is to inform and instruct participants on how they can improve each and every aspect of their own individual lacrosse game while having fun.

The cost of each session is $59 per child and includes instruction from Kelusky, a 13-year National Lacrosse League veteran, and other Bandits players. In addition, participants will receive a pizza party courtesy of Pizza Hut, a locker room tour, lacrosse practice jersey, Bandits yearbook, limited-edition lithograph and two vouchers that can be redeemed for tickets to a Bandits regular season home game.

Clinics will be held from noon to 1 p.m. March 9, March 23 and April 20.

Players are expected to provide their own equipment including stick, gloves, helmet, shoulder pads, mouthpiece and sneakers. Each clinic is limited to 50 runners and four goalies.

To register, please visit the First Niagara Center Box Office or Bandits.com.
