The Title Defense Begins...

Published on December 2, 2010 under National Lacrosse League (NLL)
Washington Stealth News Release


The Stealth's National Lacrosse League title defense officially starts this weekend, when the boys are back in town for the start of training camp. Nearly all of the players from last season's squad will be back for camp, but they will be challenged for a roster spot by a lot of new faces.

36 players have been invited to training camp, giving Head Coach Chris Hall and his staff the difficult task of whittling the roster down to a 23-man active roster and 3-man practice squad before the NLL's December 23rd deadline.

You can get the first look at the team at the practice sessions at the Comcast Arena that are open to the public:

Sunday, December 5, 9am-11am Saturday, December 11, 10am-12pm Sunday, December 12, 8:30am-10:30am

Spectators attending training camp are asked to enter through the main entrance of the Comcast Arena on the corner of Hewitt Ave. & Oakes St.

"The intensity of the game was enormous..."

- Mark M.

"I got choked up when I knew those boys were going to pull out the championship..."

- Erin M.
