Best of the Beach
BEST OF THE BEACH 2020 HAS BEEN CANCELED
Manahassett Creek Park and Long Branch HS, Long Branch, NJ
LGS Lacrosse has made the extremely difficult decision to cancel Best of the Beach 2020. We came to this decision after an in-depth evaluation of the US Lacrosse safe return to play, CDC, state, and local guidelines. Based on the CDC's Considerations for Youth Sports, our events are considered to be at the highest risk level due to the fact we have teams coming from many geographic areas. Even with the switch to a single-day format and countless hours spent planning for all possibilities, LGS Lacrosse feels that we cannot put on an event at the standard you all expect while keeping the health and safety of our athletes, coaches, parents, and referees our top priority.
