Denver Elite Field

The Denver Elite field lacrosse program, powered by LXTC, is one of the top club associations in the country. Denver Elite is a member of the NLF, which is comprised of other premier club teams from all over the country. The Denver Elite experience is focused on athletic and skill development, personal growth, fun and support in the college search and recruiting process. Both the youth and high school teams experience intense college-level practices and play in local and travel tournaments against top competition throughout North America. Playing on Denver Elite is one of the greatest experiences that a young athlete will have in his sports career.

For the 2024 calendar year, Denver Elite is making changes to our tryout and team selection process. We are moving to a single tryout model, through which players will be invited to participate on both summer and fall teams for the year. 

In other words, summer team players in graduation years 2026- 2032 will automatically be included on a fall team and expected to compete in that season as well. Very limited exceptions to the new policy may be granted upon advance request, specifically for fall scholastic sport participation or boarding school attendance. 

Supplemental tryouts for our Denver Elite fall travel teams will be held on Monday July 29th and Wednesday July 31st at the University of Denver. These tryouts will be held to fill any open positions on these teams. Teams will be organized at the 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, and 2033 graduation years.

Players who participated on a Denver Elite team in the summer of 2024 are confirmed to participate on a fall team. These players must register for the supplemental tryouts to indicate their participation in the fall.

Invitations to join a fall Denver Elite team will be sent out after the tryout process has been completed, no later than Friday August 2nd.

Current Denver Elite team players will receive their fall registration invitations no later than July 12th, and must complete the registration with deposit payment by July 19th.

Team costs will be released when invitations are sent out to current or new players.

Team practices will be held either Monday & Wednesday evenings, or Tuesday & Thursday evenings, at the University of Denver. Practices will begin at the end of September and will run through mid-December. We will email team members with the practice schedule after it is confirmed by the University.

Denver Elite belongs to the National Lacrosse Federation, which represents the pinnacle of club lacrosse in the United States.

The NLF has partnered with USA Lacrosse, to provide age guidelines for premier boys lacrosse clubs like ours to follow. These guidelines will help to insure a more level playing field in youth lacrosse, as they become widely adopted by clubs and tournaments.

Use the chart above to determine the appropriate youth Denver Elite team for which your son should try out. For players with June, July, or August birthdays, we recommend that they continue to try out with their natural graduation year team.

*Guidelines apply to players 2029 and younger only.
