From Press Release
The third annual Philadelphia Indoor Lacrosse Championships (PILC) will be held this weekend at the SportsPlex in Feasterville. The PILC has emerged as the largest all box lacrosse high school and youth tournament in the nation.
The competition will be fiercer than ever, especially in the High School AA Championship division as twelve teams hailing from five states and Canada fight to follow the footsteps of past champions Low and Away Lacrosse Club (2010) and Duxbury, MA (2011) and get their names engraved on the Philly Indoor Cup.
Said Robin Baxter, Director of NXTevents, “We are thrilled by the response to this tournament. We are completely full at each age division, and can’t wait for this weekend to welcome everyone to the third-annual PILC.”
The PILC will also feature an educational component led by the American Indoor Lacrosse Association (“AILA”), which serve as the Official Educational Partner of the PILC. The program will be run by AILA President/CEO and Philadelphia Wings GM-Coach Johnny Mouradian and player Steve Holmes.
The AILA is dedicated to educating and training athletes of all ages to help improve their lacrosse skills through high-quality indoor lacrosse programming.
As Official Educational Partner of the PILC, Mouradian will lead a special free clinic for all players during the day on Saturday. Wings Assistant Captain Brett Manney will be running a free clinic for participants on Sunday. The AILA is additionally supporting the tournament by providing goals, shot clocks and high-quality box goalie equipment for the athletes.
