Mike Dee’s occupation as a physical therapist has come in handy for the lacrosse world. Not only has Dee provided medical treatments and counsel for his sons’ teams in Vermont, but as the co-owner of Dee Physical Therapy in South Burlington — where most clients visit before or after their workdays — he can carve out time in the middle of the day to talk about his volunteer work as president of the Vermont Chapter of US Lacrosse, a role he cherishes as a way to give back to the sport that has given his family much.
“My sons switched from baseball to lacrosse when they were young, and I followed as a general helper, assistant coach and water boy,” said Dee, who grew up in Syracuse but only started playing the sport at age 56.

“Lacrosse has given them a connection to college and the opportunity to make new friends, and it’s been the same for me.” While Dee’s connection to the sport was forged through the eventual college careers of sons Bennett (LIU Post) and Lawrence (Saint Michael’s), his connection to US Lacrosse has grown out of pride. He brings the perspective of a parent who, like thousands of peers across the country, got involved in lacrosse to support his children. “I’m so proud to be part of an organization that puts positive coaching at the forefront of coaching education,” Dee said. “The Positive Coaching Alliance is emphasized, as are the safety initiatives. I was excited to see that.”
