| | MN Elite Summer Travel Lacrosse Team Tryouts |  |  | |
by
posted 05/14/2008
Over the past five years, college coaches throughout the lacrosse world have come to recognize the Minnesota Elite Summer Travel Lacrosse Team as one of the premier travel teams in the country. This season, the Elite team is opening tryouts to all players in order to assemble the best lacrosse players in Minnesota . Players must be rising seniors or younger. The Elite team has been in existence for 6 years and has had a winning season each summer. With a 83 win 14 loss record, the Minnesota Elite team is ranked with some of the best recruiting teams in the country. The current NCAA Division 1 leading scorer in the country (Cornell's Ryan Hurley) is a graduate of our program, and countless other veterans of the Elite are now making major contributions on college teams. We are proud to say that we have helped many High School players achieve their dreams of playing college Lacrosse by providing them with the exposure they need. Our team's success in some of the nation's best summer tournaments, our unmatched record of college placements for MN players, and the deep connections our staff has to college programs make us the #1 choice in the state for players who aspire to play at the next level.
This summer we will be attending the University of Denver team camp (June13-15), The Notre Dame Midwest Challenge camp (July 11th-13th), and the prestigious invitation only, Battle of the Hotbeds (July 26th – 29th) . We are the only team in Minnesota to receive an invitation. The Elite team has either won or been in the finals of this tournament the last 4 years. The combination of these three camps will give players unbeatable exposure to coaches in Divisions I, II, and III.
Returning players will be required to try out as well. Please feel free to pass on this information to any players capable of playing at a higher level.
This years tryout's will held be June 1, 2008 at The Blake School at 9:00am. Again, Players must be rising Seniors or younger to participate.

| | Star of the North Games Boys Lacrosse Tournament |  |  | |
by
posted 05/08/2008
Dear Boys Lacrosse Contacts:
As mentioned previously, the Star of the North Games Boys Lacrosse Tournament will be used as a regional US Lacrosse Referee Development Program. Clinicians are being flown in from around the country to help develop officials in our area. This is a fantastic opportunity for local lacrosse: it is a fun tournament, and it helps to improve our officials at the same time.
However, in order to get the largest possible number of officials trained, we need at least 12 teams entered in the tournament. Because of this, I hope you'll consider entering a team as soon as possible. The team entry fees go up by $50 on May 15. For more information, see:
http://www.starofthenorthgames.org/team/info/b_lacrosse.shtml
I know there are MSHSL restrictions on off-season tournaments, but I believe the tournament dates of June 21-22 fit within the allowable time frame.
Thank you for your consideration and for y our continued assistance in improving boys lacrosse officiating in Minnesota.
-Harold Buck
