LACROSSE SCHOLARSHIP?

Lacrosse is not an easy sport but for you athletes who have the coordination, strength and ability then a lacrosse scholarship is a great option. Universities and colleges award lacrosse scholarships to very talented lacrosse athletes, which enables the athlete to participate in collegiate,intercollegiate matches and national championships. If you are a male or female athlete you are able to gain lacrosse scholarships.

Lacrosse Scholarships – When is the best time?

The best time to go to the USA with a sport scholarship is right after graduation from high school or up to two years after. Only athletes ages 18 – 24 can compete within the college leagues, any older and you will be looking at competing in the NAIA. Coaches are increasingly committing to younger athletes as this gives them the opportunity to work with the athletes for a longer period of time. It is also possible to go to the USA for one, two, three or four years, it depends on if you wish to seek a bachelor’s degree from your time there. We would recommend going to America as early as possible because this will give you the best chance of gaining a sports scholarship and turning professional after college.

Lacrosse scholarships – How good do you have to be?

Athletic lacrosse scholarships can be achieved if you are at the right level. For good lacrosse players on the level of the Division I the chances to receive a full scholarship are relatively high if you know who to contact.

In order to gain the most opportunities from your profile and thus receive higher scholarship offers, it is important that you try to participate more in national tournaments in the time prior to starting U.S college. This will show college coaches that you are able to compete at a high level

If you are competing at national level then you have a great chance of receiving a 100% sports scholarship. Coaches will also look at an athlete’s potential, it’s a vital aspect, as coaches know from experience that even moderate athletic performance can be boosted immensely with their intensive training methods. A college recruitment coach will look at a sport CV or the athlete, photographs, video and our staff advice regarding the athletes ability.

Lacrosse training on a lacrosse scholarships program

If you gain a lacrosse scholarship you will be expected to practice with the team for around 3 hours a day 5 times a week. This would consist of lacrosse training and then some additional strength and conditioning training.

Lacrosse practice can seem tough to an international athlete because you may not be used to the hard workouts and training. This hard training often allows lacrosse athletes to reach previously unattained levels of fitness and performance while playing at college.
