ACADEMY Director
Jen Rodrigues is in her 4th year as the President of Bridgewater Raynham Girls Youth Lacrosse and Director of the U9 teams. She is entering her 7th year as a coach for girls from K-4th grade. She has grown the BRGYL program from 60 girls to over 100 girls and 6 teams in 3 short years. The league has also evolved under her helm to put a Select Level team on the field for their 7th and 8th graders for the 2025 season. She is a full-time personal trainer and group fitness instructor in Bridgewater, MA and thrives when coaching kids and adults through a positive and fun atmosphere.
Jen played soccer and softball for her high school’s Varsity teams but didn’t have the opportunity to play lacrosse. After deciding to enroll her eldest daughter into the program in 1st grade she quickly jumped in, learned the game and fell in love with every aspect of the sport. Her husband Dave, a former Semi-pro championship football player and coach, joined the league 4 years ago and is now the current 7/8th grade coach for BRGYL. The family of four now travels the east coast for both of their daughters and their lacrosse club, Aces Lacrosse. They are also looking forward to seeing their daughter play for Nation’s Best this coming fall.
With Jen’s top notch event management skills, youth coaching experience and her love and passion for the game of lacrosse she is very excited to welcome you to a GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp.

CAMP REVIEWS
“If I had to pick what the best part of camp was, it was meeting new people who liked playing lacrosse as much as I do. The coaches were great teachers and they made learning about lacrosse tons of fun.”
Kara M.
“This day camp exceeded our expectations! Coach Emily’s approach to teaching not just skills but values through lacrosse was exceptional. My daughter’s stick handling improved visibly day by day, and she’s already recruiting friends to join her next summer!”
Harper S.
“The overnight lacrosse camp exceeded all expectations! My daughter couldn’t stop talking about the comfortable accommodations, delicious meals, and how Coach Taylor remembered each girl’s strengths and areas for improvement. The evening team challenges created bonds that strengthened their play on the field.”
