Applications for Georgia Select for the summer 2010 team are now being taken ( http://georgiaselectboyslacrosse.vnsports.com). We recognize that between various team events, summer leagues, competing tournaments, other all star teams, camps, etc that schedules fill up quickly. It is hard to imagine that we need to start the selection process now but this is the reality of our times. We will solidify a majority of the team in the next few weeks but we will leave open 5 to 7 spots for additional players to be named to the team in the spring as well.
This team is open to players from all schools, however, this is not a developmental team, we are looking for the top players in the state. We typically carry a roster of 22 or so players (we do have some alternates that we name to the team as well that can practice with the team). The intent of this team is to take some of the top underclassmen in the state and allow them to play against some very, very good competition (minimum or 2 travel events along with local events). While not our focus, it will also get the players some very good exposure to many of the college coaches who have been invited to the tournaments we will travel to. We have had several All Americans and many All State players on our rosters and we have seen many former players go on to play at the college level and we hope that Georgia Select has helped them in that progression.
The cost per player should be reasonable and the time commitment is not significant. Again, the idea of this team is to compliment a lot of the individual camps and commitments players have in the summer.
Information has been sent to every coach in the state but also feel free to access the website and be sure to read the ABOUT US section to make you understand what we are offering and what we are not.
Thanks for your interest.
