On Episode 8 we’re so fortunate to have one of my favorite people in the lacrosse world Brendan Bomberry. I was lucky enough in my early coaching career to get to teach, and coach Brendan at The Hill Academy. In our “dorm house” I saw first hand how he’d get home after school, hockey or lax practice & coach Noble workouts and still want to play Goalie Wars or Back Yard Lax w/a tennis ball.
As a player, Brendan has since gone on to win Minto Cups for the Six Nations Arrows, and Pro Championships for the MLL Bayhawks and NLL Georgia Swarm.. For Team Iroquois, he has won a bronze medal in the Box and Field World Games!!
As a young man, he has just co-authored a book and is doing big things with Turtle Island Lacrosse!!
He has also taken an active role on social media to talk about social and cultural issues.
On this episode, we Lax Poetic about Brendan’s love for lacrosse, cultural awareness, goalie wars, playing with a tennis ball, his experiences in the game, the Swarm locker room, playing different roles on teams, Team Iroquois & the World Games, his mindset, and how he is now a role model for future players and what that means to him & So much more!!
Obviously we had to mention our legendary @thehill Grade 10 Canadian history class, with Zach Miller, Dallas Bridle, RJ, and Nick Ritchie…Nick..Bomber won more mintos!! Lastly, we talk about how much of an internet tough guy @bubbavoigt is and that he’s soft in person.
