Event Highlights

The goal of Showcase Lacrosse is to provide exposure & education for young athletes. Our Showcase events have historically been the most well-attended events of the year by college coaches. The Philly Summer Showcase is held at the United Sports Center, which features four lighted turf fields, which means the weather will not be an issue at this event.

Each Showcase participant receives a Nike gear package upon checking into the event. Each team will be led by NCAA college coaches. In addition to coaching teams, college coaches will lead all skills clinics and recruiting talks, providing players with an opportunity to work directly with them.

Showcase All-Star Evaluation

We have three evaluators watching every game. The evaluators are simply given a list of players and numbers and are not given any information about where a player is from or who they play for. The evaluators are not stat-counting, but rather grading the players on the skills and attributes needed to be a successful college lacrosse player. At the end of the morning session, we run all the numeric grades through our program to select the All-Stars.

Our Process

The Showcase is open to any and all participants in the appropriate grad years. We collect both an application as well as a nomination from the athlete's high school or club coach. This allows us to learn about the player through their highlight film, in addition to gauging their abilities from the perspective of a coach. After you send in your application/nomination, we review them and send you details on how to register.

Invitation Dates

Invitations will be sent out on a bi/monthly basis.

Positions & Capacity

Due to high demand, many positions fill up quickly. If we reach capacity and are no longer accepting applications for your position, we will open up the waitlist. Details on registering for the waitlist will be posted here as well as communicated through email.
