In 2010 NoVa West and SMS Lacrosse will again join forces to create an elite lacrosse team called Outbreak.  The teams focus each year is to provide the players on the team with the ultimate in recruiting exposure and summer coaching.
 
How do I make the squad?
In 2010 NoVa West & SMS Lacrosse promote between 6 to 8 players each, then hold an open national tryout for the remaining slots.  Keep in mind that the mission of this team is to put the best possible talent on the field in the best recruiting tournaments with the best summer coaching in an effort to get all the players on the team positive exposure with the best lacrosse programs in the country.
 
Want to tryout for the open slots? contact us at admin@NoVaWestLAX.com

Eligibility
The Outbreak squad will be made up of 26-28 players.  6-8 will be promoted from both NoVa West and SMS Lacrosse leaving approximately 10 slots open which will be filled via open tryouts.  If you are interested in an open tryouts please contact us at admin@NoVaWestLAX.com.

NoVa West requires a minimum GPA of 2.7 from all the players wishing to tryout for any of our High School level teams. Why do we require this? Because NoVa West likes to consider itself unique among summer select teams in that our mission is to maintain a very high percentage of our players making it to the next level.  Most college coaches will not even talk to players with GPAs lower than 2.5 so we feel by putting this restriction on our players that we will be able to work with them and get them placed into a quality collegiate program.  Remember at some point the ball will stop bouncing and we all need to be able to fall back on our education to further our lives.
