“Crease Coach training sessions have helped improve my skills tremendously. In a typical session, we go over pretty much everything about the goalie position. From stick work and foot work all the way to the mental side. Washuta covers it all. What really makes this coaching so special is the level of lacrosse knowledge, IQ, and experience. He has given me countless tips that I have used and implemented into my game.”

“Sample testimonial. A real player quote goes here. Short, specific quotes about confidence and improvement work best.”

“Every Crease Coach event I've attended has been amazing. Always an electric environment coupled with some of the best goalie coaching you will find in the country. If you get the opportunity to attend a Crease Coach event whether it is a training day or combine or anything else I wouldn't hesitate to jump at it.”

“When it comes to goalie training in lacrosse, Coach Washuta is the gold standard. Working with a D1, PLL keeper is an instant game changer for any goalie. In his sessions, Washuta trains every aspect of the game: form, reaction time, lacrosse IQ, clearing, communication, and mental grit. What sets him apart, however, isn't just his insanely fast lefty shot; it is his personal care for every one of his players. He would frequently tell me how he'd crafted drills specifically for an issue I'd been having, whether it was using a weighted stick to speed up my reaction time on low shots on the crease or incorporating my team's specific clear after I'd make a save. Even with other goalies around, every session felt tailored to what I needed to improve, and Washuta's investment in my development was pivotal in improving my on-the-field confidence while playing for a top high school program. His commitment to the sport is evident in every drill he creates, every minute he spends reviewing film, every shot he takes, and everything he remembers about you to help you grow. Whether you're just starting out or starting on the varsity level, there's always something to learn from Coach Washuta — I can honestly say I wouldn't be the goalie I am today without his coaching.”

“Nick Washuta has coached our goalie for 4 years. In that time, he has helped her grow into a more confident player with amazing game IQ. He takes the time to learn about each player he coaches and plays to their strengths, recognizing that each goalie is different. He answers all of her questions and works with her to be the best goalie she can be. She's done large group, small group and individual sessions and she always walks away having learned something new in addition to getting the reps she needs. I highly recommend each of his programs — if you want your goalie to be training with the best, train with Nick!”
