[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry if this has already been covered, but what's the difference between "American Select" and "All America Lacrosse?" Is one better than the other??[/quote]

They are similar national tournaments with regional teams. American Select is in its 2nd year and is for only girls.  It is organized by STEPS/Yellow Jackets. "All America Lacrosse" formerly known as Under Armour All American Lacrosse tournament has been around for a number of years and fields both boys and girls teams. (I personally feel the boys get more of the spotlight.) It is run by Corrigan Sports. Both events are highly political and high profile though not the "end all be all" in the recruiting process (as the organizers would like you to believe). Nice to be able to put them on the recruiting resume and a fun way to have your DC play with/against new talent. Both events are money grabs. They were scheduled at the same time (for the first time) this summer. AS created multiple teams at certain age groups to not only pad their pockets, but to make sure players were locked in before UA tryouts.[/quote]
