ALL Stars!

We are incredibly fortunate to have Jenicka Cucco and Justin Bonacci as part of the Mad Dogs family!

Jenicka has reached the highest levels of the game, competing professionally in the Women's Lacrosse League (WLL) and serving as a lead goalie for Team USA. Most recently, Jenicka received the prestigious Atlas Award, recognizing her outstanding accomplishments and contributions to the sport. Her experience, knowledge, and passion for the game make her an incredible resource for our players, especially our goalies.

Justin has had an outstanding lacrosse career of his own. A graduate of Comsewogue High School, Justin went on to play at Stony Brook University, where he became the team's leading goal scorer. As a starting attackman and All-American, Justin has proven himself to be an exceptional talent and a tremendous ambassador for the game.

Having Jenicka and Justin involved with Mad Dogs gives our players access to an incredible level of experience, knowledge, and inspiration. Both have accomplished so much in the sport, yet continue to give back and help develop the next generation of lacrosse players.

All about the team

At Mad Dogs, we believe it’s all about the TEAM! Lacrosse is more than just a sport; it’s about coming together, trusting one another, working hard, and pushing each other to be the best we can be. Every pass, every play, every practice, and every game is an opportunity to grow, learn, and get better together.

We celebrate each other's successes, pick each other up when things get tough, and never let a teammate stand alone. We believe that the strongest teams aren't built by individual talent alone, but by heart, dedication, commitment, and the willingness to put the team first.

It's not about who scores the goals or who gets the recognition. It's about what we accomplish together. It's about the friendships we build, the challenges we overcome, the lessons we learn, and the memories we make along the way.

We play for each other, we work for each other, and we grow together. When one of us succeeds, we all succeed. When one of us struggles, we lift each other up.

At Mad Dogs, we don't just build better lacrosse players. We build better teammates, stronger friendships, and a family that stands together on and off the field. One team. One goal. One family. Mad Dogs!

Its all about the reps

MORE TIME ON THE TURF = MORE REPS, MORE GROWTH, MORE OPPORTUNITY!

At Mad Dogs, we believe that getting better doesn't happen by accident. It takes hard work, dedication, commitment, and a willingness to put in the extra time. The more time you spend on the turf, the more opportunities you have to learn, improve your skills, build confidence, and become a stronger player.

One of the things that makes Mad Dogs special is our access to the turf fields at Middle Country throughout the entire year. This gives our players opportunities to get out on the field, put in the work, get extra reps, and continue developing their game beyond the regular season. We believe that great players aren't made overnight. They're built through countless hours of practice, determination, and the desire to keep getting better.

Every summer, during our Mad Dogs clinics, we also strive to bring in special guest coaches, players, and people who can inspire our athletes. We want our players to learn from others who have been on the journey, hear their stories, gain new skills, and understand that big dreams really can become reality.

We want our athletes to see what's possible when you believe in yourself, work hard, stay dedicated, and remain focused on your goals. Talent is important, but hard work, a positive attitude, and perseverance are what help take you to the next level.

At Mad Dogs, we don't just want to teach lacrosse. We want to inspire our players to dream big, challenge themselves, step outside their comfort zones, and never give up on what they believe they can accomplish.

The opportunities are there. The fields are there. The support is there. Now it's up to you to put in the work!

Because dreams don't happen by wishing. They happen when preparation meets opportunity.

MORE REPS. MORE CONFIDENCE. MORE GROWTH. MORE MAD DOGS!
