About Us

Our Passion is Lacrosse

Maxx lacrosse was founded in June 0f 2021.   

Why should you choose Maxx Lacrosse ?

We want to focus on long-term individual player development

  • We prioritize the physical, learning and emotional development of our players.  From our youngest children, we focus on overall athletic fitness and technical skill work, to our oldest, where we focus on individual fundamentals and team concepts in highly competitive situations, with our knowledge and experience to help each player achieve his/her lacrosse goals.  
  • Our club’s mission is to be the best on Staten Island. We will work in smaller groups so your children will get the most out of our coaches. Our approach allows coaches to have a personal relationship with every player. 
  • Every player is different.  We will work hard to make sure every player is coached to their different abilities and level of play. Players have different strengths they need to focus on, and it is our job to make sure the players know these strengths and weaknesses and work on them accordingly.
  • We will create a positive culture, where kids make friendships for life but more importantly have fun.
  • Our Practices will be up tempo, lots of energy and fun. We want to maximize our practice time and will aim for the kids to get as many reps as we can in the time we have.
  • Communication is key!  We will be great communicators with our players and our parents! We know how important it is to teach clearly and get our message across. We also know communicating with our parents is as important and will be very focused on that.
  • We will keep our teams to a manageable level we will not over stock a roster! Our goal is to have everyone play and grow as a group. 

Family and Team atmosphere

  • Maxx Lacrosse will not just be a lacrosse club. When you join Maxx Lacrosse you join a family and place where your kids will learn life lessons, how important being a good character is and the most important thing is to be a great student!
  • Attitude is everything! We want kids that are unselfish, hardworking, team first players and willing to do what it takes to get better.
  • We want to foster a place where your kid can learn life lessons as well. We believe character and integrity can lead to great things both on and off the field. Building great work ethic, passion and instilling confidence are a major part of our club! A positive attitude and team first mentality is our priority.
  • We will eventually attend some of the most competitive lacrosse tournaments on the east coast. However, we are going to crawl before we walk and put our kids in a position to succeed. 

 Coaching

  • We will have the best coaching available to you. Our coaches will be comprised of current college players, high school coaches, Professional players who are currently playing in the PLL and other coaches who have coached college or professionally as well.
  • Our founder Vincent Pucciarelli (Coach Pucc)  has deep ties to Staten Island and has been coaching multiple sports for close to 30 years. He coached Staten Island’s own Semi pro football team NY Predators to a national championship in 2010 in Florida at the semi pro national championship. He has coached lacrosse for over a decade and helped build his hometown of Monroe, NJ rec program into a successful program winning the central jersey championship 2 times. He also trained and developed the high school lacrosse players along with Matt Rambo (Maryland Lacrosse, Professional Lacrosse league (Whipsnakes), NLL indoor professional league (Philadelphia Wings). The high school team eventually went on to the state final for the first time ever in 2021.

Recruiting support

  • We want to be a big part of your kids recruiting process. We will create relationships and ties to college coaches. We will also teach your son how to put together recruiting videos and profiles. We will eventually partner with Recruiting websites that will enhance the ability of your child’s recruiting process.
  • Although Maxx Lacrosse is a brand-new program, our mission helping players develop and find the right college is our goal!
  • We will give you our honest opinion on the skill level and what is realistic for your son. There is a right college for everyone, and we help our players with that long stressful process!

We love Lacrosse! The fastest game on 2 feet!

  • We are deeply committed to the sport and the development of our players.
  • Come play with us!
