Want to Make Varsity? Here’s What 15–30 Extra Minutes a Day Can Do for Your Game

School might just be starting but spring tryouts will be here before you know it. And it’s the work that you put in now, when no one is looking or even thinking about lacrosse, that will make all the difference next year.

At Buddy’s Ball Walls, we believe there’s no substitute for reps — especially when it comes to developing your off-hand. And guess what? Even a short, focused session every day can lead to thousands of extra touches before tryouts.

Let’s Do the Math

Say you’re getting in 2 throws every 10 seconds — that’s 12 reps a minute. Now multiply that by your commitment:

• 15 Extra Minutes a Day
12 reps/min × 15 min = 180 reps a day

Do that every day from now to February 1 (about 180 days), that’s 32,400 extra reps

• 30 Extra Minutes a Day
12 reps/min × 30 min = 360 reps a day

Over 180 days, that’s a jaw-dropping 64,800 extra reps

What Could That Do for Your Off-Hand?

If even half of those reps are with your off-hand, you’re talking about 16,000 to 32,000 focused off-hand throws — the kind that build true confidence in games, not just in warmups.

That’s the difference between avoiding your off-hand and using it without hesitation under pressure.

Why It Matters

By February, some players will have casually thrown a few hundred balls a week. You? You’ll be tens of thousands of reps ahead — and it’ll show. Daily wall ball isn’t just practice — it’s the fastest way to:

• Fix bad habits
• Build off-hand ability
• Stand out in tryouts and scrimmages
