It’s a one-day evaluation event benefiting a charity (Winter 2025 that charity is Morgan’s Message) where athletes are put through a tryout and evaluated by some of the area’s best coaches. Players participate in skill stations and scrimmages, receive detailed feedback afterward, and compete for Tryout for Charity X Morgan's Message Honors.

Because Every Athlete Deserves Actionable Feedback. This event eliminates the guesswork by providing a detailed performance profile from expert coaches—insight you won't get at standard tryouts.

No — this is not a new club or travel team. Athletes selected for the Morgan’s Message Team are honored for their performance, execution, and mental approach at tryouts.

Players rotate through skill stations and scrimmages. Each athlete receives feedback on strengths and growth areas from multiple evaluators. Scores are averaged across evaluators and compiled into a performance profile shared with families after the event.

You’ll receive official Morgan’s Message x Mind Over Talent gear, receive a certificate, and lots of Instagram shoutouts with custom graphics.

"Tryouts" inherently have pressure associated with them. The event is formatted the same as a tryout, as athletes will participate in stations and scrimmages where coaches evaluate key skills, IQ, and teamwork — the same way you’d experience at a real tryout. We aim to replicate that experience so that when athletes participate in more tryouts in the future, they have experience and feedback to build upon.

No. It is our belief that youth lacrosse players are playing enough lacrosse. Selected athletes will be part of the Morgan’s Message Team in name and recognition only. There are no practices or competitions. The purpose is to give tryout feedback like never before while raising awareness for Morgan's Message.

Evaluators are hand-selected coaches from the area — experienced, trusted, and committed to youth development. Each brings a background in coaching, player development, and mentoring young athletes.
