The Fellowship of Christian Athletes is ready for their 2013 team tryouts which will be held on Sunday December 2nd. The tryouts will be held at the Total Sports Experience in Rochester from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. Players will be selected for the Northeast teams, which include players form Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont.

Northeast Region FCA Lacrosse has announced that athletes will compete for roster spots on six teams ranging from current grades three through eleven.

"We're looking to achieve a very high level of lacrosse," High School team coach Greg Scott says. "When the FCA teams are on the field, they are very competitive. They play hard. They lead by example. They show character. That attitude is the same for the players, the coaches, and the directors. It's a very cohesive group."

Northeast FCA Lacrosse teams will be comprised of players from New York and New England and will compete this summer at top tournaments around the region. Last summer's tournaments included the Lake Erie Showcase in Buffalo, the SU Shootout in Syracuse, the Lake Placid tournament, and the Stowe Lax Festival in Stowe, VT. This year FCA is one of eight programs invited to the first Bitter Lacrosse Recruiting Showcase taking place in beautiful Stowe, VT.

Scott concurs that these teams are a perfect opportunity for athletes "to showcase their talents and their character" and points towards a number of FCA success stories. When you look at our sidelines last summer, you saw players who loved the program so much they were willing to give back as a coach including those such as Jake Bailey (University of North Carolina), Brian Lane (Gordon College), Mike Messina (Syracuse University) and Jeff Nitti (Mercyhurst) .
