All clinics will be directed by Brian Silcott and will feature players from both the Barrage and Pride. Cost is $60 per day and any camper who attends two or more sessions will receive a free ticket to the main event Saturday night. In conjunction with the big game, there will also be a two-division, eight team lacrosse tournament for elite teams from throughout the Northwest and Canada. The Northwest Challenge, as it’s called, will begin on Friday, August 8th, with the championship game for both divisions occurring on the main field prior to the Barrage and Pride face off.

The 2007 inductees included three women, Holly Allen Ziegler, Hilary Gilmore and Andrea Schatz and six men, Sam Sadtler, Bill Lake, Thomas Foster, Curt Sheinin, and Brian Platz. Presenting the awards were the Oregon Chapter president, Terry Vance and a star player from the Portland Lumberjax professional indoor lacrosse team, Ryan Powell. In attendance were not only the families and friends of award recipients but also many current high school players there to support their coaches.

The recipients of the awards represented virtually all contributions to the game of lacrosse including all star playing careers in high school and college, officiating, umpiring, coaching and development of the program and love of the game here in the Pacific Northwest region. This event was both a symbolic and literal indication that lacrosse has become an integral part of the Pacific Northwest sports scene. |
