Welcome to Team Central Lacrosse!
TEAM CENTRAL is an elite out-of-season lacrosse program comprised of talented players from the Central and Eastern Regions of Massachusetts/New England. We even have some players from the other New England states that participate with us. Team Central is committed to giving players good exposure to high level lacrosse and good coaching in helping them develop their lacrosse abilities and goals. Please see the "About Us" tab for recent college committments from our Super Jrs Team.
Playing for Team Central (Super Juniors and U17):
Super Jrs:
For players interested in playing for the Team Central Super Jrs in the Winter and Summer of 2008, please contact Coach Middleton. You should be a player who has high character, solid grades and a good lacrosse player. Our best candidates are multisport athletes that treat lacrosse as their #1 sport. Players are selected based on these qualities and recommendations from various sources. This allows us to evaluate you as a person and a lacrosse player. We accept hi-quality student athletes that are presently in the 9th grade up to graduating seniors who will attend a PG year for possible selection to the Super Jrs Teams.
Team Central events typically happen in the evening or on weekends during the summer. In the fall/winter, events are all on the Sundays. Although we do have events throughout the seasons, we encourage our players to play another sport(s) in addition to lacrosse.
For players who are selected to the Super Jrs Teams, there is a annual registration fee and then the appropriate tourney fees. Players will get assistance with college planning and recruiting as part of participating with the Super Jrs Teams at no additional cost. For juniors who are not selected to participate with the Super Jrs Teams, Team Central will have some very limited opportunities available to participate in scrimmages, practices and possibly tournaments as an alternate. Information on this option will be provided to individuals as these situations arise.
Inquiries regarding opportunites to play for Team Central should be directed to John Middleton, Director of Team Central at
info@tclax.com.
U17 Open Enrollment
The Team Central Under 17 Program (U17) is open for enrollment for Winter and Summer 2008. We are looking for freshmen and sophomore players with a desire play lacrosse at a high level. We look for multisport athletes that view lacrosse as their #1 sport.
All players accepted for registeration in the U17 program are invited to participate in regular practices and scrimmages that are on our website for the summer and fall. In addition, players will have the opportunity to be considered for a roster spot on the tournament teams. There are no guarantees that all players will be selected to participate in each or any tournament. Players that are not selected to the tournament teams would become part of the Team Central U17 Development Team. Some of the criteria we use to select players are commitment, effort, coachability, skill and ability to get along within a team atmosphere. We evaluate all of these things at the summer and fall scrimmages, mini- camps, clinics and some winter indoor leagues that players participate in. Team Central's U17 team typically plays in 3 summer tournaments during the summer. Additional tournaments may be added. Both the U17 Tournament Team and Development Team members will also participate in scrimmages against other Elite programs during the summer.
In order to participate with Team Central's U17 team players must have paid their annual registration fee. This registration fee allows players to participate in all of our scrimmages, mini-camps, clinics and events, and allows them to be eligible for possible selection to a tournament team throughout the 2008 year. Please note that this fee does not cover tournament fees for players selected to participate in a tourney nor do we gurantee that all players will be selected to a tournament team. Team Central's events typically happen in the evening or on weekends during the summer. In the fall/winter, events are all on the Sundays. Although we do have events throughout the seasons, we encourage our players to play another sport(s) in addition to lacrosse.
