BOYS PROGRAM STRUCTURE

On-floor sessions are divided by gender and into Elite and Developmental groups to best provide student-athletes with the environment to succeed as an individual. 

The Elite group is designated for student-athletes who have previously played “A” box level lacrosse.  The Developmental Group is designated for student-athletes who have yet to play “A” box level lacrosse. 

This very focused program is for committed lacrosse players and student-athletes whom are motivated to continue their development in pursuit of their lacrosse, academic, and personal goals.

GIRLS HYBRID PROGRAM STRUCTURE

ELEV8 Lacrosse takes a unique and pioneering approach to girls lacrosse development.  As the sport of girls lacrosse grows, it is important to include the box lacrosse and field lacrosse disciplines within development. 

Female Winter Training participants will be coached in a box lacrosse environment, with box lacrosse systems, theory, and strategy while using field lacrosse equipment and modified rules for competitive settings. 

We are excited about this new direction, giving female players the opportunity to develop in an environment unique to their discipline while using their field lacrosse equipment and preserving the box lacrosse characteristics which make Canadians the best lacrosse players in the world. 

 

This direction within our development model will teach box lacrosse theory and systems while significantly increasing stick skill development with the utilization of girls field lacrosse sticks.

ELITE BOX TRAVEL TEAMS

Teams will compete at the USBOXLA Winter National tournament, February 16 -19, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. Student-athletes will be coached by current and former professional National Lacrosse League  box players. Elite Box Travel Team training is fast, physical, and intense; helping you develop into a complete two-way player.

Teams are open to:

U13 Boys
U15 Boys
U17 Boys
U19 Boys High School Boys
U15 Girls (Box Lacrosse equipment required)
U17 Girls (Box Lacrosse equipment required)
