The 3d Difference

3d Lacrosse delivers a superior training experience for players and families looking for more than what is typically available in the marketplace. 3d offers small, sided training and a uniform terminology and scheme across all 3d markets heavily focusing on skill and lacrosse IQ development. 3d teams attend highly competitive tournaments nationwide and are provided with the opportunity to showcase their skills at the top individual showcases. Our mission is simple: develop individual players to their fullest. 

Helping You Get To The Next Level

Beginning with 14 committed players in 2009 (3d Lacrosse’s first year of operation), we have been dedicated to matching motivated players with appropriate college experiences from both an academic and athletic perspective. Player advocacy continues to be a primary company goal and most players will find a lacrosse home during their search, resulting in a placement that combines their athletic abilities with their academic interests and achievements. 

OUr Team

The 3d Lacrosse network of Select coaches is dedicated to training players and coaches in the nationally renowned 3d Methodology, and that clearly sets 3d Lacrosse apart from other organizations in the industry. Our combination of exceptional coaches who are carefully groomed, superior training for players with consistent instruction, and thoughtfully planned tournament competition is unique and unlike anything most players have ever experienced in the club world.

Tyler joined 3d as the Director of Colorado in December of 2023 after leading Nations Best – a 3 STEP national program for two years. Originally from upstate New York, where he attended Livonia High School and played both hockey and lacrosse through his time there; Tyler went on to play college lacrosse at the Rochester Institute of Technology. At RIT, he won three league championships, made it to the NCAA Division 3 semifinals in 2011, was named an All-American twice and was the offensive player of the year in the Liberty League in 2012.

After graduating, he quickly got back into lacrosse coaching at the high school level, then moving into the club lacrosse world in New Jersey, and coaching at the Division 1 level. Tyler has been around the club lacrosse world for 10+ years at this point and takes a lot of pride in building relationships with younger players, teaching them and ultimately watching them go on to have successful careers both on and off the field.
