Motor City Knights Lacrosse

My son played with this organization for three plus years but he has decided to hang up his stick. He was a decent player and he used to like the sport before getting the coach for the 6th/7th group. If you are looking for a developmental team, this is not the team to go with. This coach runs it like a travel program where only certain kids get playing time. (Everybody plays but you might only see a couple of minutes a half). If they tell you that it is OK to play another sport, dont fall for it. Many of us parents fell for it. With all that said, I do believe that they are really trying to build a competitive program and I am good with that. Just dont masquerade as a house program if the intention is to run it like a travel program. I personally did not like 6th/7th grade coach and neither did my son, but the but the other coaches were great. I am sad that my son will not be playing anymore because of last years experience. Make sure to do your research on this organization (especially if your child is older).

As a former player in the high school program, I have only praises for this program. Instruction and coaching is knowledgeable, the environment is very welcoming, and the coaches and staff treat everyone as valued. I gained some of my greatest memories and closest friends through the knights and could not be happier I was a part of it!

Motor City Knights run a fun program while focused on instruction and remaining competitive. Practice is well managed and every player is involved. Coaches are knowledgeable and are working to grow the program and the sport. My son started at 8 yrs old having barely picked up a stick and now at 10 yrs old he can really play. Travel for games is local and accessible for families. Cost is incredibly reasonable considering time put in by the coaches, amount of games and professionalism of the program. It is a dedicated season though. Dont think your son/daughter can play travel soccer/baseball in the spring and also play lacrosse during the same season. Practice is 3X a week plus most games are on Saturdays. Great program from both beginners and experienced players.
