Orange Crush Buffalo brings the Orange Crush development model to Western New York, drawing players from the Buffalo region, Erie, Rochester and Ontario. Its program combines fall practices and tournaments, winter indoor training, spring and summer academy work, team practices and summer events. The stated objective is to pair high-level training and competition with team and position-specific instruction so players continue improving their skills and lacrosse IQ. Older athletes also have access to recruiting support and additional small-group training.
