The Showcase

From Deemer Class
Founder of First Class Lacrosse

Best In Class is now heading into Year 5 and we continue to provide value to our families. This one and a half day format will maximize our #LearnTrainCompete and allow players to grow and learn directly from the NCAA coaches. 

There are many tournaments, showcases, and team events to choose from with many great options that provide significant value in different ways. We are weaving the core principles we believe in, and our method of training, to help players see the value in development in order to make an impact at the school’s they desire to play for.

The Coaching

Some of our Best In Class coaches will be on staff, however this event will differ slightly as we have some of the top NCAA coaches on board to run drills and coach games. Stay tuned as we announce our lineup in the coming months!

Best in Class brings together individual technique drills, small sided drills, live repetitions, situational environments, half field and full field scenarios, and in-game coaching points. The ultimate goal of this design is to help our players develop, be seen, and be accurately evaluated by college coaches by developing and performing the skillsets that are necessary for their success in college lacrosse.
