The National Team Development Program's mission is to develop the next generation of American lacrosse players by expanding and strengthening the talent pool for U.S. National Teams competing in World Lacrosse international events. Along the way, participants gain valuable experience, learn from some of the sport's most accomplished coaches, and compete alongside the best players in the country.

The program is designed with a three-step process:

• Step 1: Regional ID Clinics
• Step 2: National Combines
• Step 3: U.S. Youth National Teams international competition

Ultimately, the program seeks to help every player develop their game, compete with the best, and begin their journey toward representing the United States.

In the event of adverse weather or unplayable field conditions, the National Team Development Program Senior Manager and/or Head Athletic Trainer reserves the right to:

• Reduce playtime in order to catch up with the schedule.
• Conclude sessions before inclement weather arrives, or to preserve field conditions or player and spectator safety.
• Cancel the tryout in its entirety. If a tryout is canceled in whole, for whatever reason, by USA Lacrosse, USA Lacrosse will issue partial refunds. Players may submit a virtual application instead at no additional cost.
• If thunder or lightning is observed, play will be suspended immediately, and players and spectators will be asked to leave the field(s). Play will be allowed to resume 30 minutes after the last sound of thunder or sighting of lightning is observed which will be determined by the event medical staff. Every attempt will be made to begin subsequent play on time.

Refund, Cancellation and Transfer Policy 

• A refund may be requested no later than 2 weeks prior to the tryout date. If the request is made within 2 weeks of the tryout, USA Lacrosse cannot guarantee a full refund.

• If you would like to transfer to another tryout location, please email nationalteams@usalacrosse.com with the player's USA Lacrosse membership number, the tryout location they are registered for, and which location they would like to transfer to.

• If a tryout is canceled in whole by USA Lacrosse, for whatever reason, USA Lacrosse will issue partial refunds. Players may submit a virtual application instead at no additional cost.
