Academy teams are the pinnacle of the lacrosse programming at TOP and offer a pathway for advanced players who are looking for a more complete season full of structured practices, tournaments, and games. With an emphasis on team building and advanced skill development, our goal is to help our players develop into successful athletes on and off the field and develop into competitive multi-sport athletes. 

To provide ultimate flexibility, the Academy season is split into two blocks with separate registrations:

Spring Season - The spring season runs from April to June and features an extensive curriculum with 3 practices per week and 2-3 tournaments, depending on the age group. Tryouts take place each November and teams are formed by February. 

Training during July and August is optional, which allows players to enjoy their summer break without losing their spot on the team. 

Fall Season - To encourage players to play multiple sports, the Fall season in September and October features an in-house program with a skills session and Sixes League games each week, resulting in an action-packed and efficient schedule that allows for other activities.
