Event Highlights

The Philly Summer Showcase spotlights players in NXT's highly popular individual showcase format. The Philly Summer Showcase will feature elite talent from the 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 graduation classes.

Now in its third year, the Philly Summer Showcase continues to provide Exposure & Education for young athletes. Our Showcase events have historically been the most well attended events of the year. The Philly Summer Showcase is in Downingtown, PA and is played on 4 lighted turf fields, assuring weather is not an issue.

Each participant will receive a Nike gear package, and will be coached by a NCAA College coach. In addition to participants' team coach, College Coaches will lead all skills clinics and recruiting talks, providing players with an opportunity to work directly with them.

The Draft

I. Our Process

The pride of Showcase Lacrosse is our process. 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. We then review all Application/Nominations, and send emails with instructions to register.

If the selections from the prior round of the Draft do not register before the dates below, their spot will no longer be guaranteed. This is a first-come, first-serve basis registration.

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.

II. Invitation Dates

Invitations will be sent out on a bi/monthly basis according to the following schedule:
