I applied to penn state university park and I’m interested in playing lacrosse there. I’m not good enough to be D1 but I found out that they have club lacrosse too. Is that also a good option or is the club lacrosse not really worth it?
The club team is very competitive and will require try outs. Most of the players on the club team could have played D1 somewhere (not at Penn State) but wanted to go to Penn State. Most club teams are also funded by the players so can cost quite a bit for travel, coaches, refs, etc. (not sure how much Penn State subsidizes its club teams).
There might be a more informal chance to play too, either through organized intramurals or just a bunch of guys/girls putting together games on weekends. There will be thousands of kids who played in youth or high school leagues who just want to shoot around.
