Canadian Box Showcase presented by TRAC Athletics coming this July

Two-day event will feature Ontario’s top box players. Applications now being accepted.

TRAC Athletics is pleased to announce details for the inaugural Canadian Box Showcase from July 6-7, 2022 at the Toronto Rock Athletic Centre in Oakville, Ontario.

The two-day event will feature 60 of the top box lacrosse players (boys) per age group from 2004-2008 (DOB) and provide them an opportunity to showcase their box abilities in front of attending NCAA, CUFLA, Junior, US/Canadian Prep School and National Lacrosse League coaches & staff. The event will consist of four full-length games (per player), custom-event jersey & shorts, coaching & guidance from highly regarded guest coaches, plus professional game film.

The Canadian Box Showcase will be hosted at the world-class Toronto Rock Athletic Centre and managed by the TRAC Athletics staff. The TRAC team will provide attendees with unparalleled social media coverage, access to professional game film, live streaming, real-time stats & scores, all-event team nominations and additional player coverage on TRACAthletics.com.

TRAC Athletics Director & NLL Hall of Famer, Colin Doyle, envisions the Canadian Box Showcase as being a crucial and important platform for Canadian student-athletes who wish to demonstrate their box skills.

“Every Canadian lacrosse player grew up playing and developing their skills in the box game. We are witnessing the rapid growth of box lacrosse all over the US and seeing Canadians continue to make a significant impact with NCAA programs north of the border. We wanted to provide a showcase that was solely for box lacrosse to demonstrate these players’ unique and very transferable skills. We believe the Canadian Box Showcase will grow to become a marquee recruiting event each summer.”

Players interested in attending this event can apply online to be considered for one of the 60 highly coveted positions at each age group. There is no cost to apply. A registration cost of $250 (+HST) will be required once selected for a roster (event entry, uniform, film, etc.). A TRAC Athletics staff member will connect with selected players directly to confirm their entry.
