US Lacrosse has invited nearly 300 high school-age (U15 and U17) athletes from 27 states to compete in the first-ever National Team Development Program Combine Aug. 19-23 at its headquarters in Sparks, Md.
Divided into separate three-day sessions for boys and girls, the combine will include on-field, strength and conditioning, recruiting and sport psychology training.
It represents the second phase of the inaugural NTDP cycle. The players (listed below) were selected from a pool of more than 1,300 who participated in 21 regional trials (boys and girls) conducted in partnership with the Premier Lacrosse League and Women’s Professional Lacrosse League.
The boys’ session is Aug. 19-21. The girls’ session is Aug. 21-23. US Lacrosse will announce directors and coaches at a later date.
Following the combine, a total of 88 players will be named to USA Select teams at the U15 and U17 levels for boys’ and girls’ lacrosse.
Phase three of the NTDP is a showcase event that will feature the USA Select teams playing against international competition this fall.
Any players from the 2019 USA Select teams that retain age eligibility for 2020 will automatically bypass the 2020 regional trials and be invited to the national combine.
