In this clip, Ryan Wellner of Notre Dame shares why being a part of the IMLCA is about more than just learning the game. It’s the opportunity to build relationships, find opportunities, and put yourself in the room with the people shaping lacrosse.
Key takeaways include:
- Learn from the best in the game
- Build genuine connections with coaches and industry leaders
- Take advantage of opportunities to network and introduce yourself
- Be willing to step outside your comfort zone
- Put in the extra work that sets you apart
- Show up if you want to make an impact
Networking has played a major role in Wellner’s 25-year coaching career, creating opportunities to learn from legends, connect with peers, and open doors to future possibilities. The IMLCA provides a space to build those relationships, engage with sponsors and partners, and make your voice heard. By showing up, putting yourself out there, and being willing to do what others won’t, you create opportunities to distinguish yourself and take the next step in your career.
