GLOW LACROSSE
Developmental girls lacrosse clinics designed to build strong fundamentals, improve stickwork, and prepare athletes for whatever comes next—from learning the game to competitive play.

Girls PreK–6th Grade
Why GLOW Exists
Caroline Hines Fitzgerald launched GLOW LACROSSE in April 2025 to create the kind of youth sports experience she believes every girl deserves.
At a time when girls are starting younger than ever before, many still lack access to female coaches, quality instruction, and the foundational skills needed to feel confident when competition begins.
Caroline believed there was a better way.
————————————————————————————————
In just 14 months, 237 girls from 28 different towns across Massachusetts have registered for GLOW.
THE GLOW DIFFERENCES
-
Great coaching starts with connection.
Girls learn faster when they trust their coaches, enjoy coming to practice, and feel confident enough to make mistakes along the way.
Relationships come first.
Player development follows. 💫🥍
-
GLOW's curriculum follows a clear developmental progression, introducing skills and concepts when girls are ready to learn them—not when the most advanced player in town can execute them.
Every clinic builds on the last, helping girls develop confidence, athleticism, stick skills, game awareness, and decision-making at a pace that makes sense for their age and experience level.
Our benchmark isn't the town prodigy.
It's what's developmentally appropriate for the average athlete sitting in front of us.
-
The best athletes don't just learn lacrosse. They learn how to move.
Every GLOW clinic develops balance, agility, coordination, reaction time, speed, body control, and confidence alongside lacrosse-specific skills.
When girls become stronger, faster, more coordinated athletes, the learning curve gets shorter and the game becomes a lot more fun.
-
The first team practice shouldn't be the first time your daughter picks up a stick.
GLOW helps girls build the skills, confidence, and game awareness needed to feel prepared when they step onto a town or club field for the first time.
Sometimes a better introduction to the game is the difference between sticking with lacrosse and walking away before a girl ever discovers what she's capable of.
-
so you can keep doing the things you love. Our flexible “Many Ways to Play” structure is designed to support busy family schedules while honoring the importance of being a multi-sport athlete.
We firmly believe that no girl should have to sacrifice something she loves in order to pursue lacrosse.
Participating in multiple activities helps young athletes develop stronger skills, greater balance, and a healthier relationship with sport.
We want your daughter to train with purpose while staying engaged in the activities that bring her joy — so she can arrive at the start of the season feeling prepared, confident, and excited.

🌟 SHOOTING STARS (PreK–K)
Most 4–6 year olds are not ready for complicated lacrosse instruction.
They're learning how to listen, share space, follow directions, react to new information, control their bodies, and participate in organized group activities with other girls, many of whom they do not know.
That's why Shooting Stars focuses on athletic development first.
Through games like Tag, Sharks & Minnows, Red Light Green Light, relay races, obstacle courses, team relay races, and keeping their bodies moving, girls develop balance, coordination, reaction time, agility, body control, and hand-eye coordination.
We also introduce the building blocks of lacrosse: holding a stick properly in “triple threat” mode, getting loft off our passes, basic cradling, running through ground balls, moving to open space, using our voices to communicate, and being a great teammate.
What Success Looks Like:
We aren’t scoring goals and aiming for hat tricks, yet.
It is a good day if girls want to return to class, listening improves, more independent participation, and believing that sports are something they can do well!

💜 GLOW GIRL (1st–2nd Grade)
This is where lacrosse begins to look and feel like lacrosse.
Athletically, girls continue developing coordination, balance, agility, reaction time, and body awareness.
Girls at this age love learning new skills and seeing their own progress. They thrive on encouragement, repetition, and opportunities to experience success.
Players work on catching, throwing, cradling, ground balls, shooting, stick protection, and basic offensive concepts like moving to open space and supporting teammates.
Many players at this age are preparing for their first town season and often worry they're behind.
The good news?
Most girls are exactly where they're supposed to be.
What Success Looks Like
Success is a player who walks onto her team field knowing what a ground ball is, how to initiate catching and passing with a teammate, and how to participate confidently in practice with a strong ability to focus and cooperate.
-
⚡ GLOW UP (3rd–4th Grade)
The Game Starts Moving Faster
Athletically, girls develop speed, agility, balance, footwork, and change-of-direction skills that directly translate into game performance.
This is often the biggest transition in youth lacrosse.
Girls begin playing against other towns, keeping score, learning positions, and experiencing the pressure that comes with competition.
Many players suddenly feel overwhelmed and wonder if everyone else knows something they don't.
They don't.
Most players are simply trying to become more consistent.
At GLOW, players focus on catching and throwing under pressure, dodging, shooting, defense, stick protection, spacing, off-ball movement, and understanding what to do when the ball isn't in their stick.
Athletically, girls develop speed, agility, balance, footwork, and change-of-direction skills that directly translate into game performance.
What Success Looks Like
Success is a player who feels prepared when the whistle blows.
A player who understands the game, contributes to her team, and starts making decisions instead of simply reacting.
-
⚡ RISE (5th–6th Grade)
By 5th and 6th grade, most girls have a strong grasp on the basics and are playing with more speed and consistency.
Athletically, girls continue developing speed, agility, balance, coordination, and confidence while learning how to compete, lead, communicate, and respond to adversity.
The biggest opportunities for growth are no longer technical.
They're tactical, mental, and emotional.
Players are expected to understand their role, communicate with teammates, make decisions under pressure, and adapt to a game that is becoming faster, more competitive, and increasingly specialized.
At GLOW, athletes refine stickwork, shooting, dodging, defensive footwork, draw controls, transition play, and game IQ while developing a deeper understanding of spacing, timing, positioning, and off-ball movement.
We challenge players to think beyond their own position and begin seeing the field as a complete player.
What Success Looks Like
Success is a player who understands not only what to do, but why she's doing it.
A player who competes with confidence, communicates with purpose, and is prepared for whatever comes next on her lacrosse journey.
Private Training
S
Sometimes the smallest adjustments can change everything. ✨
Private training with Caroline provides athletes with focused instruction, immediate feedback, and the extra reps that are often difficult to find during team practices.
-
With music, energy, video review, and plenty of encouragement, Caroline helps players recognize their strengths, understand their game, and make small adjustments that often lead to big results.
Her goal isn't just to improve one skill. It's to help girls become more athletic, more confident, and more versatile players with a bigger presence on the field.
When players can play to their strengths, they often become “unstuck” and start to play like that confident player they are!
-
Before the first lesson, Caroline schedules a brief consultation to understand each player's experience level, areas of focus, and both short-term and long-term goals.
Every session starts with a conversation. Caroline wants to know what you're working on, what feels challenging, and what goals you have for your game. Whether you're preparing for a tournament, trying out for a club team, or simply looking for more confidence, each lesson is built around you.
