For the players who are Next Up.

The Next Up Showcase was built to give the best 7th and 8th grade boys lacrosse players in the country an opportunity to learn from their future college coaches while competing with the top players in their class. The event is limited to 92 players per class (184 total). Each class is split in to 4 teams of 23 players. Teams will compete in a round-robin format before playing a championship and consolation game. The event will be capped with an all-star game featuring the top players in each class.

All games will be filmed by Next Level Video and available for families following the event. Additionally, our on-field media team will share highlights throughout the weekend on the @NextUp_Showcase instagram page.

The 2026 Next Up Showcase will be held in October 2026. To be considered for an invitation to the Next Up Showcase, players must complete the player application.
