Florida

The Boys Lacrosse team has traveled to various locations for their annual preseason trip, including IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida and the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center in California.  

This year’s trip destination is planned to be in Florida and will follow a one of the previous trips taken, the final destination is still being confirmed.

The team will enjoy sunshine, premier training facilities, and superb competition. Players participate in two practices each day and leave plenty of time for shared experiences and leadership development.  After the week trip, the team returns to Deerfield with an increased sense of community and excitement for the upcoming season – historically one of the most challenging schedules in all of New England.
