Ken Brubaker aka “Coach B”

This is Coach B, the founder of GP Select. I became involved with coaching lacrosse back in 1999 in the Grosse Pointe Community.

My ultimate goal with GP Select is to provide Michigan JV and Varsity players a competitive and positive lacrosse experience during the summer. I also have made it a goal to encourage former GP Select and other college level players to contribute by coaching with us over the summer. I feel giving back may be more important than playing.

I have always been concerned about the absence of a local platform for Michigan lacrosse players to work on their skills during the off-season. GP Select gives our young men a venue to improve their skill level, and be showcased in front of regional and national college lacrosse coaches.

I am committed to continuously improving my program. I will make sure college coaches from all levels attend our events see and contact GP Select players. My college coaches contact list is extensive.

I am an avid student and promoter of the game. I am proud to have dedicated hundreds of hours coaching, watching, and playing the sport of lacrosse. I have spent as much time or more researching coaching methods and techniques. It is my love and my passion. I have gladly dedicated a portion of my life to this great sport. My reward is seeing players I have coached doing well at lacrosse and in life.

Team play, sportsmanship, respect of teammates, opponents, coaches, and officials are the foundation of what I teach. My team motto is “honor the game”. I continually stress that to my players and coaching staff. The history and culture of this great game is paramount to me.

I welcome parents and players suggestions and comments. I am always willing to field conversation any time about any subject.
