Ep. 124 Growing the Game: Creating Opportunities for the Next Generation of Lacrosse Players
In this episode, host Trent sits down with Colby Zaph, co-founder with his wife Lynda Fletcher, and director of Melbourne Lacrosse Academy (MLA) - to unpack the vision behind one of Australia’s fastest-growing youth lacrosse programs. Seeing a gap in how the sport was delivered to young players, Colby set out to design a pathway that combines high-quality coaching, clear structure and a supportive culture inspired by the best of North American lacrosse.
He shares how MLA was built from the ground up, the mission and values driving every session, and why the Academy offers something different from traditional clubs. Colby also talks about the Academy’s first year, from wins and lessons learned to the exciting plans for the future , giving parents and young athletes a clear picture of how MLA is creating opportunities, raising standards and building a community where kids can develop skills, confidence and a love for the game.
