The 6th Annual LB3/Ward Melville-Style Lacrosse Clinic will be held on Saturday at the Shipley School Farm Fields in Gladwyne.
The event, hosted by Shipley School Boys’ Lacrosse, runs from Noon-4 p.m. and is for boys aged 8-to-18.
The clinic serves as a nicely-timed tune-up for the spring season. Headed by LB3 founder Liam Banks, a standout from Ward Melville and Syracuse University, many of the the instructors are grads of the famed Long Island high school program that produced Banks and so many others that starred at the college and pro levels.

The clinic will focus on passing, catching, shooting, defense, dodging, defensive positioning, face-offs, goaltending and many other facets of the game as a prelude to the start of the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association season on Monday, March 5.

Banks (former Johns Hopkins goalie and current head coach at Upper Dublin and co-coach for LB3); Kevin Banks (former Hobart goalie); and Bob Betcher (played at Ohio Wesleyan, former Duke assistant).
