2027 Top 12 Invitational | Powered by the Circuit

Divisions: 2035 AA, 2035 AAA

A Better Way To Do Winter Lacrosse.

 

Winter in the Northeast means turf tents and 6 AM wake-ups. We had a better idea.

 

The Top 12 Invitational brings the Class of 2035 to Southwest Florida for a two-day tournament built the way youth lacrosse should be built. Real competition at every field and a championship that actually means something. Twelve teams, split by level, playing five games each with a title on the line Sunday afternoon. 

 

Why Your Team Should Be Here:

 

Real competition, not a bracket lottery. Twelve teams and honest divisional placement mean every game matters.

 

Five games, one championship. Your team gets a full weekend of reps and a clear path to a title.

 

February lacrosse outdoors. Full-field, natural conditions, no dome... a genuine head start on spring.

 

Circuit standard. Officiated, scheduled, and run by the same crew behind the country's most competitive youth lacrosse events.

The Venue

 

Paradise Sports Complex (Naples, FL)

 

One of the best multi-field facilities in the Southeast, and the whole weekend happens in one place. No shuttling between sites, no 30-minute drives between games. Families park once, set up once, and watch lacrosse. Naples sits on the Gulf about 40 minutes from Southwest Florida International (RSW), with Fort Myers, Marco Island, and the Everglades all within an easy drive. Bring the family. Make a weekend of it.
