LAXU
About LaxU:
We started LaxU six years ago as a way to allow kids from non-traditional areas to stay in the mid-atlantic region in between tournaments and practice, visit schools and have schools visit them. We determined that for the cost of a camp was about the same as travel costs home and back. Our philosophy: Why not bring the colleges, many of whom are staying in town, to us for a change?
Every year we try to bring multiple universities of ALL LEVELS to our camp. These coaches work in drills with the campers and/or watch the campers to better evaluate them. They all talk to the campers and share what they look for in a prospect.
We also try to visit four or more schools on the trip of varying levels. Getting onto campuses allows campers the chance to see schools and understand the differences between levels.
We take a great deal of time and educate the campers on the Maniax recruiting system. We recommend that all club members take time to educate themselves prior to attending LaxU so the questions can be more in depth!
This year 12% of all D1 programs are coming to LaxU. More may stop by to watch the camp scrimmages which are open to all college coaches each morning. We are also finalizing visits to these programs:
Georgetown
Towson
Navy
McDaniel
Goucher
In addition, in the works are scrimmage nights against the Skywalkers, one of the top clubs in the nation. These scrimmages will help us to prepare for the following weekend's Champions Cup in Richmond.
We hope you are psyched for this year's LaxU and Mid-Atlantic Tour (We call it the MAT for short)! If you want to follow the camp, check out the social media updates on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Vine.
Keep in mind that we are staying at Towson University this year in an air conditioned dorm WITH a linen service provided. Feel free to bring favorite pillows if you'd like! Our practice fields are a short walk from the dorms and the award winning food service is on the lower level of the dorm. They custom cook for those who have eating restrictions.
It's going to be another great LaxU camp and we are super excited to work with all of the campers on the skills needed to be a college laxer!
