Frequently Asked Questions
| Where/When does STN Practice? |
| All practices are held at Training Camp. The Shred Thread Training Camp is a four day, three-night camp at Greensboro College in Greensboro, NC. We challenge and train our players in a 12 session camp which in turn is often more practice and training than other club teams in the region. |
| What does training camp entail besides practice? |
| Players are exposed to what it is like being a college lacrosse player. We provide meals, housing, instruction, film review, and enjoy the specific college campus in which training camp is held. This is a chance for each player to be challenged and prepared just like our college players in order to perform at a high level and compete during our tournaments. |
| Who coaches my son? |
| The STN Teams are all coaches and directed by college head coaches, Andrew Carey (Huntingdon College) and Mike Foderaro (Greensboro College). College assistant coaches and players from across the southeast participate in training camp as in game coaching. |
| How many players are one the STN Team? How many teams? |
| Each STN team will consist of 25 players MAX. 18 – 22 is our focus. We sponsor two – three teams. Our A level and rising senior players participate on the Orange team, Rising Juniors and B level players on the Blue team, and Rising Freshman and Sophomores on the White team. |
| Is there a tryout for the team? |
| “Tryouts” are held at the Greensboro and Huntingdon College Showcases in the Fall before the ensuing summer. This is not mandatory in order to play for the STN Teams.
