This four-day camp will be held on the campus of Rockhurst University in Kansas City, MO. Participants will receive top-notch instruction by Chicago Machine players Jake Deane, Mike Gabel and Ryan Covert, as well as other current and former MLL players and college players and special guest appearances! Dormitories, dining hall, and pool are all walking distance from the fields that will be used.  Each full day of camp will have three sessions.
