Every Detail, Handled.
Team Illinois Lacrosse knows a great tournament experience is about more than what happens on the floor. That's why we build every part of your weekend, from scheduling to venue to competition — around one goal: making it easy for your team to show up, compete, and enjoy the ride.
Smart Scheduling, More Free Time
We keep game blocks tight so your team isn't camped out at the facility from morning to night. That leaves plenty of time to enjoy everything Libertyville has to offer, from local restaurants to nearby shopping and entertainment.
A Facility Built for the Game
Games are hosted at Canlan Sports Libertyville, a modern indoor sports complex equipped to handle the speed and physicality of box lacrosse. A clean, well-maintained space means your team can focus on playing.
Competition Worth Traveling For
The Illinois Box Invitational draws programs from across the Midwest, giving every team a real measuring stick heading into the new year.
