MISSION & VISION

Our focus is player development. We seek to provide an opportunity for developing players to grow in the sport and prepare for success at the next level. We aim to inspire peak performance on the field by building self-confidence in each player. HARD Lax Elite raises the standard of elite youth lacrosse by providing a structured learning environment that continually challenges the athlete while offering encouragement and support in a positive atmosphere.

We aim to provide the players with a solid base to build upon as they grow in the sport. We design our approach and methodology to achieve total lacrosse athlete development. We work to bring out the best in each athlete through challenging exercises that require effective decision-making and precise execution under pressure.

We want our players to harness the benefits of teamwork, camaraderie, perseverance, and other invaluable lessons that help them mature into better versions of themselves. HARD Lax Elite is a comfortable forum where promising players can develop skills, have fun, and learn to win and lose with humility. We strive to offer a unique opportunity to develop by training with other talented players under the watchful eye of some of the area’s top youth and high school coaches and instructors.

Our goal is to provide the best lacrosse experience and help each athlete develop into the best player they can be.

ABOUT

Established in 2019, HARD Lax Elite is a subsidiary of the School of HARD Lax, a youth player development program based in Northern Virginia and its elite youth club lacrosse program.

Steven Lee, the founder and director of the School of HARD Lax and HARD Lax Elite, is a 1993 United States Naval Academy graduate. After over 22 years of distinguished service in the United States Navy, Steve and his family made their home in the greater Washington, DC, metropolitan area.

Steve had the honor of being part of one of the most storied college lacrosse programs, and in 2014, focused his passion on coaching youth lacrosse. After observing and evaluating the quality of many club programs in the area, and guided by his conclusions, Steve decided to offer a better alternative. HARD Lax Elite was born.
