Andrew is an awesome lacrosse trainer who really knows how to connect with his players. He has a great way of understanding what each person needs to improve and tailors his coaching to bring out the best in everyone. His dedication and ability to make the sessions engaging have really helped me get better at lacrosse. Whether it's working on techniques or boosting confidence, Andrew's support and expertise make a huge difference.

Coach Andrew is fantastic! We travel up from MD when we can in order to get that dialed in feedback and instruction. With today's club lacrosse, there is little to no skill development and why seeking out training from someone like Coach Andrew and Strive Lacrosse Academy is a must to further your game.

Coach Andrew is a role model for my son. It’s sometimes intimidating for a young athlete to travel and meet all these different coaches and players. What I really found comforting in Andrew is that it wasn’t all business, before during and after the drills I could see them just talking. The coach and athlete connection needs to be especially strong at this age, it can make or break the athlete. My son is thrilled every time I tell him he’s training with Andrew.

Having found Strive Academy and Coach Andrew through Social Media my 12 year old son wanted to work with him but logistically we couldn't because we live 5 hours from the training facility. We decided to try the virtual training and it has been fantastic! After talking with my son about his skill set and areas he wanted to work on, Coach Andrew put together a detailed 4 week training program for him. After each week Coach Andrew would breakdown film of his weekly training sessions that were uploaded to a shared file and have a one on one video conference call to go over the previous weeks training videos. Not only did my son look forward to the conference calls but having the detailed weekly training with video held him accountable to do the work. In addition, he was able to easier understand what Coach Andrew was referring to as he could physically see it. Unlike a live training session. We look forward to working with coach Andrew live but the virtual training is a great compliment to in person training.

My son has been training at Strive Lax Academy with Coach Andrew and I have seen a marked improvement in his shooting, footwork, and confidence. More importantly, he enjoys his training with Coach Andrew and looks forward to it each time. It doesn't matter if it's hot,cold, or wet, he wants to be there to improve his game. That's the kind of eagerness good coach like Andrew can bring out in an athlete. I highly recommend Strive to improve your lacrosse game and motivation.

My son's experience at his Strive Lax Academy was great! Tim was a very personable, and engaged, coach. He quickly identified the areas for my son to focus on; from fundamentals to his weakness areas with the opposite hand. And, it was all 1-1. Highly recommend this clinic.

The best training in New Jersey. Andrew's reputation as a player/coach is second to none. The visual content Strive produces, specifically on Instagram, gives tips/advice for athletes of all levels is high-quality and informative.

Andrew is an outstanding lacrosse coach. His ability to teach the critical core skills of the game are second to none. My son has improved tremendously as a player in such a short time by working with him. Andrew's passion for lacrosse, sense of dedication, commitment to hard work and overall positivity have had a wonderful effect upon my son. My son truly enjoys his practice sessions with Coach Andrew. Additionally, Andrew is more than just a terrific lacrosse coach; he is a great role model and mentor for young lacrosse players. I would highly recommend him as a personal or team coach for any level.

Andrew is an amazing teacher, coach, mentor & role model for these kids that he trains. He is professional, respectful and an all around great person to have around your children no matter what age they are. I highly recommend him as he has not only had a positive impact on my son’s game & skills, but he’s motivated him to be the best athlete, teammate & peer.
