Q: What is the Winter Thaw Lacrosse PlayDay?
A: The Winter Thaw is a preseason lacrosse event that allows teams to prepare for the upcoming season. It originated during the Covid pandemic to give teams playing time after a long hiatus, and has since evolved into a final preview event before the regular season begins.

Q: Who can participate in the event?
A: This event is exclusively for Varsity teams. Players who are strong candidates for Varsity in the upcoming season may also participate if invited by their Team Manager.

Q: Is there a championship game?
A: No. The Winter Thaw is designed as a preparation tool for the spring season, not a competitive tournament. The focus is on team assessment and readiness rather than winning a title.

Q: What type of jerseys are provided?
A: Participants receive custom tank tops. These can be worn in various settings outside of lacrosse, promoting the event in schools and public venues.

Q: Why is the tournament limited to Varsity-level play?
A: The Winter Thaw is a competitive event where teams play at full intensity. It's not intended for teaching new or younger players, but rather for experienced players to hone their skills before the season starts.
