FLG is excited to announce that it is offering a unique experience for high-school aged players in its program: a College Road Tour! For the past two years, Mike and Corey have gone on the road in February to check out some of the area’s best college lacrosse programs, as well as share the FLG philosophy with those coaches and learn what type of student each school wants. Now, FLG is offering an incredible opportunity to its players. FLG is hiring a coach bus and inviting its studletes to join them on a seven-day, four-state tour to visit 27 area schools during February break!
“The mission of our College Road Tour is simple—familiarize our players with the schools, coaching staff and programs within driving distance of Long Island, so we can help each of them find the right school,” says Corey Winkoff. “It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity!”
The FLG Road Tour consists of meetings with coaching staff, attending games, attending practices and campus visits. In addition to learning more about the schools they might be considering, FLG program players will get an opportunity to:
- Build relationships
- Have a great life experience
- Grow friendships
- Get closer with teammates
- Experience big-time college sporting events
- Spend time with the FLG Directors and coaches
- See for themselves the differences between schools
- Learn what they really want in a college
- Gain valuable experiences that will serve them well as they go through the recruitment process
The 2016 FLG College Road Tour is taking rising high school freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors, who are not yet committed to a university, on a seven-day, four-state tour of colleges over February break. Students can see for themselves what each of the 27 schools offers in the way of lifestyle, student body and team experience. All campuses are within driving distance of Long Island. Your studlete will meet with coaches, tour campuses and learn about the college choices available to them.
From campus drive-throughs to watching big-time hoop games, the FLG College Road Tour will give student athletes an opportunity to see schools at every level.
As part of the FLG College Road Tour, your studlete will visit urban as well as rural colleges, large and small universities, highly selective academic schools, selective academic schools and colleges that offer D1, D2, D3 and club lacrosse programs. See a full list of the schools on our tour at http://flg.ebricks04.com/flg-college-road-tour/.
Buses depart on February 14 and return on February 20 for an all-inclusive tour price of $995 payable in two installments by January 15 or the full amount can be paid upon registration on or before the January 15th deadline. We encourage registering right away as space is limited to one bus accommodating no more than 40 students plus coaches and chaperones.
FLG’s all-inclusive college road tour includes: 6 nights of hotel accommodations, luxury bus transportation, breakfast, lunch and dinner daily, evening activities, supervision and an FLG College Road Tour sweatshirt.
“We are deeply committed to assisting in the recruiting process. It’s our goal to help each of our students make the most of their future and getting into the right college can make all the difference,” says Mike Winkoff.
