We are proud to announce the third annual Beast of the East Boys Lacrosse tournament at the University of Massachusetts. UMass has been the home for some of the best high school recruiting tournaments in the country and we are excited to bring this tradition of excellence to youth lacrosse (U13, U15, and U17).
The Beast of the East will take place at the end of the summer, the weekend of July 21 & 22. It will be held on the large playing fields surrounding Alumni Stadium at UMass. The expansive space allows for plenty of tailgating opportunities for parents as well as ample warm up space for each team before their games. Each team will be guaranteed a minimum of 5 games between the two days. With teams from all over the country, The Beast of the East will be highly competitive and a lot of fun!

There’s plenty to do in the area for parents too. With a sprawling green landscape and numerous shops and restaurants within walking distance, the UMass campus is located in close proximity to bustling downtown Amherst. The tree-lined sidewalks of downtown offer over 50 stores, shops and restaurants – among them is a UMass institution in Antonio’s Pizza, where visitors are treated to the Northeast’s best and most unique pizza. Neighboring Northampton is a tourist hot spot with its wide array of shops and eateries, and nearby South Deerfield is nationally recognized as the home to America’s most successful candle maker, Yankee Candle Company. The Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, MA is only a 20 minute drive away too.
