CITs
- What is a CIT?
CIT stands for Coach In Training. These are comprised of high school lacrosse athletes ages 14-18 that are interested in learning how to coach, developing their leadership skills, and improving their own lacrosse knowledge and skill sets. Each summer camp session has a limited number of CIT positions available, and CIT's work directly under Atherton coaches and Directors throughout each camp or class. - Why become a CIT?
Most adults know through their experiences that teaching is often the best method of learning. This simple concept is often overlooked in the traditional education system and not always taught in the classroom. The Atherton CIT program is an opportunity for high school lacrosse athletes to gain experience as mentors and leaders in an environment that is positive, fun, and continues to expand their confidence in an important area of interest to them: the lacrosse field. Many Atherton Lacrosse coaches and directors started as campers and CITs, and coaches that go through our training program are given the first opportunity for summer coaching jobs. - How much does it cost?
It doesn't cost anything! There is no tuition or camp fee for Coaches in Training. CITs are given a gift of lacrosse apparel, equipment, or a gift certificate to Sling It! Lacrosse at the end of each camp. - How do I become a CIT?
