In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.

    2015 California Gold swag was a rip off ! All the kids got this year were shorts, socks and a t-shirt. No one received the cleats, duffel bag or heads like in years past.
    Day 1 only had (2) 2 hour training sessions.
    Day 2 the kids only played 2 games.
    The players were TOTAL GLORY HOUNDS – taking crazy shots through crowded lanes, defense men running down the field to shoot, even goalies trying to score.
    The selfishness and ME attitude was disgusting.
    The cost rose from $325 to $475, and the quality of the program sucked.

    This was an OBVIOUS MONEY GRAB. There were kids there who did not belong. 3D Invited them because they had MONEY !

    The younger athletes did not even have college coaches watching their games. If they did, there were only a few.

    OVER ALL THIS WAS A MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

    Want to get noticed by college coaches?
    1. Get good grades.
    2. Get good test scores.
    3. Focus on your fundamentals.
    4. Get as good on your weak side as your strong side (passing, shooting, cradling).
    5. Be a TEAM PLAYER.
    6. Be involved in things other than LAX (4H, FFA, Scouts, Church/Community Groups, etc.)
