Prove it at FLG’s Summer Showcase.
FLG is offering a three-day Legit Showcase to be held this summer at LIU Post in Brookville, Long Island. It is attracting young male and female studletes from throughout North America, 22 states so far, as well as Canada, who are gearing up for a chance to distinguish themselves as top players, ready to receive great coaching and looking to enhance those leadership qualities that make them “legit.”
“It’s a great opportunity for uncommitted rising freshmen, sophomore, junior and senior lacrosse players to get ‘eyes on’ from dozens of coaches and recruiters representing some of the best schools in the country,” says Corey Winkoff, Program Director for FLG. “More than 50 college coaches will work with participating athletes providing them with beneficial strategies and ways to enrich their personal and athletic development with the goal of becoming truly outstanding players.”
It’s your chance to prove you’re “Legit.” What does legit mean? It means that you’re a hard-working, recruitable athlete, someone with drive and a passion to play the game at the next level – and an individual who shows leadership.
“We’ve hired 56 college coaches, 24 high school coaches and 24 college players to work the boys’ event. That’s a remarkable 10 to 1 ratio for participating boys at the showcase and a 6 to 1 ratio for girls at their event,” says Winkoff.
What makes this event unique?
- Participants will stay in the LIU Post dorms, eat in the campus cafeteria and enjoy on-campus activities
- Your first night will be kicked off by a keynote motivational speaker who will address the impact of the decision to be a legit player at the high school level
- Players get a chance to play with a diversity of student athletes from all over the U.S. and Canada
- Coaches will be able to watch and have easy access to players at all times from four adjacent fields
- An amazing coach-to-player ratio — 10-to-1 for boys and 6-to-1 for girls
How will I stand out at the event?
Throughout the showcase, based on performance as well as exemplary leadership and other admirable characteristics, boys will be awarded stickers to be placed on their helmets and girls will receive bracelets branding them as “Legit” players. The stickers and bracelets will draw the attention of coaches and recruiters. So, it’s up to you to make the plays and exhibit the qualities that will earn you observable Legit status at the event.
How will this event help get me recruited?
FLG, in partnership with Lacrosse Recruits, helps opens doors by giving you the best advantages and tools to market yourself to colleges.
