Vail Lacrosse Shootout

The Vail Lacrosse Shootout is a lacrosse tournament held annually in Vail, Colorado, composed of six age brackets for men- Chumash (Youth), High School (U-19), Elite (19+), Masters (33+), Supermasters (40+) and Grandmasters (50+), and three for women- Chumash, High School and Elite.[1] Play typically runs from the end of June into the beginning of July.[2] Games take place in Vail, Avon and Edwards, however most games are in Vail at Ford Field, Donovan Park and Athletic Field.[3]

The inaugural tournament was held in 1973 and the event has become increasingly larger and more popular since. Participating teams come from all over the nation and world, and are made up of both local and college alumni teams. Players come from all levels of high school and collegiate play, from Division I, II and III.

Champions prior to 2002 cannot be found on the Vail Lacrosse website and thus are not included in the tables below. If such information is known then please feel free to add it, however please include the appropriate citations.
