Meet the Director: Jamie Schmidt

While growing up in Syracuse, New York in the 80's and 90's, I fell in love with the sport. I played lacrosse in and around Syracuse, and I ended my college playing career at the State University of New York at Potsdam in 1997. I have been teaching lower school at Providence Day School since 2000. I have directed Cool Kids Lacrosse since 2002 and have served as director for the Carolina Lacrosse Association since 2004. 

I've coached at every level, but my passion is with the beginner. I enjoy watching the spark and ignition of the life long love of the game of lacrosse!
