Premier Sports Camps and the Revolution Lacrosse Camps are very excited to name a brand new camp director for the Revolution Lacrosse Camp for Boys, July 25-29, 2010.  The new camp director is Head Men’s Lacrosse Coach at Kenyon College (Gambier, OH), Doug Misarti.

Coach Misarti, now entering his third season as head coach of the Kenyon lacrosse program. He wasted little time installing his high-octane offense in Gambier. Each of his first two seasons at the helm, the Lords ranked among the top 35 teams in the nation in scoring offense. Misarti also capped his first season prowling the Kenyon sideline by leading the Lords to their third-ever NCAA Division III tournament berth in 2008.

“We are extremely excited to partner with Coach Misarti.  He comes extremely well recommended and is widely regarded as one of the top young lacrosse coaches in the nation.” Premier Sports Camps, president, David Schilling stated.  ”He places a real emphasis on teaching, and in particular, individual development.  He realizes that there is a shortage of lacrosse camps with top flight teaching of personal skills, and that this sort of personal attention is the essence of player improvement in a camp setting.  Too many camps today offer a big name player and/or coach who make little or no effort to develop the players at the camp.  This will not be the case with Doug.  He has a real passion and concern about player development” Schilling continued.

The Revolution Lacrosse Camp for Boys is hosted at the College of Wooster July 25-29, 2010 and is now in the 7th year at Wooster.

After 4 months of intensive work, brainstorming session, professional input and the help of two very talented design companies, we are proud to unveil our brand new website for Premier Sports Camps.  Our goal in the beginning was to develop a cutting edge site, that would be interesting, informative and functional.  However, equally important is what we wanted our website to “say”.  With this in mind, we decided to develop a CMS (Content Management System) based site.  This format is the latest web design, with brand new technologies and interactivity.  A CMS system allows us to update the site frequently, and integrate with popular social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook.  This new CMS format is now just in our 1.0 version.  We have built the backbone and the spine that will allow us to grow and add more and more content to the site as time goes on.

Many businesses and camps see their website as nothing more than an online brochure.  We at Premier Sports Camps, feel that our site should not only act in this capacity but also allow us to share, with our campers, their families and friends and interested parties.  We have built some of the most respected sports camps in the nation. Our All-American tennis camps have won several national awards, and our Revolution Lacrosse camps have quickly become the the Midwest’s fast growing lacrosse camps.

We hope to use our site in some very interesting ways in 2010, and are certainly open to any ideas and feedback.
