Tryouts for 2008 Summer Select Team Announced
ChicagoLax is pleased to announce the following dates for our 2008 Summer Select Team(s) tryouts.
December 16th 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm at MaxMcCook (4750 Vernon Avenue,
McCook, IL 60525) AND
January 4th 4pm to 5pm at MaxMcCook (4750 Vernon Avenue, McCook, IL 60525) .
Current Freshman through current Juniors are eligible to participate ('09, '10, '11 graduation years). Practices will start in June and will not conflict with the High School season.
Our Varsity team is focused on helping players develop stronger lacrosse skills and to provide the opportunity and exposure for players interested in being recruited to play college lacrosse.
Our returning coaches are Head Coach Ryan Hoff (Attack - Notre Dame), Beau Isslieb (LSM - Drexel), and Justin Hess (Midfield - Denison). We will participate in the Great Lakes Invitational, Notre Dames Midwest Challenge, and either Summer Sizzle or Champ Camp as a team. Additionally, we will work with each player to help them select the proper individual camps to attend this summer. Camps that will get them the maximum and appropriate level of recruiting exposure.
Our past and present players have been (or are being) recruited by schools such as Wooster, University of Michigan, Washington and Lee, Gettysburg, Yale, St Anslem's, University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth, Navy, Tufts, Penn, Harvard, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), Colorado College, Middlebury, Bucknell, Lehigh, and Stony Brook.
There is no fee to tryout. Plan on arriving a half an hour early so we can maximize the time on the field. We would like to have players trying out attend both sessions if possible. Parents, we will be available to answer any questions during these sessions. Please bring the signed waiver form, which will be available as a pdf shortly.
We will also look to field an alumni team for U19 tournaments.
