“Our goal is to provide girls with a unique platform to showcase their skill alongside and in front of some of the top players and college coaches in the country,” said Aly Josephs, a three-time National Champion at Northwestern University and women’s product line manager at Maverik Lacrosse. “We are confident that the Girls Showtime event will quickly become the top girls recruiting showcases, as it has for the men’s.”

Unlike other camps and events, Maverik Showtime Lacrosse – “Girls National Recruiting Spotlight” is a game-only format. Players will have the opportunity to be instructed and individually assessed by coaches from top Division I, II and III programs. Showtime Lacrosse is also committed to helping participants become the best student-athletes they can be. In 2012, the Boys Showtime Lacrosse event added a new component to the experience by bringing in guest speakers to talk about strength and conditioning, mental preparation, and lacrosse specific training to help players elevate their game to the highest level.

The Maverik Showtime Lacrosse — “National Recruiting Spotlight” is the brain child of ESPN color commentator Paul Carcaterra, Joe Ceglia and Mike Springer who all achieved All-American and National Championship careers at Syracuse University. Paul, Joe, and Michael have teamed up with Aly Josephs, an All-American and three-time National Champion at Northwestern University, to create this premier recruiting event. All four of Showtime’s directors have stayed immersed in the game of lacrosse as coaches at the high school and collegiate rants, nationally recognized camp directors, broadcasters, and professionallacrosse players.
