Florida United Lacrosse Cup Series

This series is a first-of-its-kind tournament event unlike any other offered in the United States.  Created in 2009, the concept takes lacrosse competition to an entirely new level by providing skilled lacrosse players an opportunity to compete in a state-wide series of high-quality off-season lacrosse tournaments. 

Each tournament is organized to provide safe, efficient, and intense, high-level competition.  High-visibility is also assured as many college coaches have already recognized the dynamic recruiting opportunities created by attending these coordinated tournaments. 

Every tournament in the series has its own distinctive on-line presence leveraged by a one-time team/player registration process that can be applied to all future tournaments in the series.  Each tournament web-site also provides real-time schedules by division, time, and field.  Playoff round seeding and scheduling is updated in real-time with schedules available on-line throughout the tournament.  Tournament formats are standardized across the entire series and, therefore, enable true event-to-event comparisons. 

Team results are compiled and maintained over the course of the season and used to seed teams for future tournaments including an end-of-the-year championship tournament event held each November.  Player statistics are compiled by team, division, and position and are available on-line to college coaches and recruiters interested in monitoring and analyzing individual player performance and statistics over time.
