About LaxPlaybook

Ideas that fit your system.

LaxPlaybook exists to help coaches find useful lacrosse ideas, understand the context, and adapt them to the players in front of them.

The approach

No single right answer. Better decisions for your team.

The site started with a simple idea: organize lacrosse concepts so coaches can see what fits, adapt what needs changing, and apply it inside their own system.

The useful part is not a magic playbook. It is the combination of ideas, context, and perspective, backed by diagrams, concise teaching points, animations, and game video that make concepts easier to teach.

Find

Search by concept, set, drill, or coaching point.

Adapt

Adjust the idea to your roster, level, and game model.

Apply

Turn the concept into cleaner practices and clearer teaching.

The person behind it

A long-time lacrosse person, not a distant content shop.

Joe has been around lacrosse since the late 1980s, through college ball, tournaments, coaching, development work, and plenty of shared sideline conversations.

LaxPlaybook grew from that same habit of swapping ideas. The goal is still practical: share what is useful, invite critique, and keep improving how the game gets taught.

Started playing in New York in the late 1980s.

Played college lacrosse in the 1990s.

Coached almost every age group.

Worked with coaching and development programs locally and abroad.
