The clinic will take place Monday through Thursday, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., and is exclusively for Watertown High boys lacrosse players, Watertown Youth Lacrosse boys U15 players, as well as players and coaches from Waltham and Dedham High Schools.    

Duffy was named the fourth head coach in Cannons history on November 30, 2011. The 2012 season will be his first as head coach and fourth overall year with the organization.
