Lakeshore Premier teams are led by high-level coaches who match our players’ passion, dedication, and drive to excel. We believe success starts at the top, which is why we are highly selective in the coaches we bring into our program. Most of our Lakeshore Select coaches are involved as coaches at the high school level throughout Chicagoland.
Our curriculum emphasizes fundamental skills with attention to detail in correcting proper mechanics, footwork and concepts, especially at the youth levels.. These skills will become the building blocks to excel as they grow, develop and gain greater understanding of game scenarios / lax IQ and team concepts.
Outside of the set annual team schedule, Lakeshore provides additional opportunities for training to supplement team practices; from position-specific classes to small-group instruction. We support multi-sport athletes and believe that offering add-on options promotes well-rounded athletes with flexibility to excel at lacrosse along with other passions.
Lakeshore Select competes in local tournaments in and around Chicagoland. Our goal is to attend competitive local events that challenge our teams while limiting extensive travel requirements as compared to our Premier teams that compete nationally. For top Select players who are driven to play at the collegiate level, we offer recruiting packages to support this goal and their process.

The goal of Lakeshore Select is to develop athletes to compete at their max potential while providing the right opportunities for exposure to interested players. While not all players strive to continue playing collegiately, we offer add-on recruiting support to help interested players navigate the recruiting process. Lakeshore has partnered with BeGrittyRecruiting to bring expertise and experience to a traditionally overwhelming time for student-athletes.

When it comes to youth sports, we know that coaches make a massive impact. That’s why we are selective with our coaches and prioritize building a culture where hard work is expected, fun is guaranteed and there’s always time for a dance break. We have high expectations of our players, challenge one another and are driven to be the best. But we know what age-appropriate development looks like, why small fundamental improvements at the youth level are more impactful long term than wins on the field and how to get teams to peak just in time for recruiting. All of which takes vigilant hands-on leadership, attention to detail and years of experience. Come check out the Lakeshore difference at Expo night July 30 & tryouts August 9th!
