Welcome to the Best In Class Winter Showcase by First Class Lacrosse

The Winter Showcase

Led by NCAA college coaches, this will be a great opportunity to learn, train and compete, PLUS get evaluated for Summer Best In Class events! Now heading into Year 5, 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.

What to Expect

Selection Process

Per NCAA rules, this event is open to any and all and limited only by factors such as age, gender, and grade.

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!

The Format

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.

This 1 and a half day format will provide 2 90-Minute Training session along with 2-3 games and an All-Star game for both the men's and women's event.

Each grade will consist of 4 teams.
