XTEAM focuses on providing girls from "non-traditional" areas with the same opportunities of being recruited to play lacrosse in college as girls from the traditional lax areas. All XTEAMers join knowing they want to pursue playing lacrosse in college and therefore our expectations of them are commensurate with that declaration. XTEAM girls and their families are committed to travel and gain exposure playing at big recruiting events as an integral part to achieving their goal of playing in college. Local XTEAMers from CA are expected to attend local practices and playdays with TEAM OC.
