West Side Summer Warm Up 2025
Looking to get more playtime for your players this summer? Do you want to start the summer season with a convenient and affordable tournament? Maybe you want to extend your spring season. Are you looking for a friendly, laid back lacrosse environment to have fun and enjoy the game? Do you just want to play more lax? If you answered yes to any of the questions, then The West Side Summer Warm Up Tourney is for your program.
The Warm Up is a friendly, 1 day tournament designed to kick off our summer seasons. Scores, wins and losses are not the focus of the day. Fun and respectful lacrosse is the priority. Teams come from all over Michigan to participate. Over the last couple years programs from Kalamazoo, Flint, Traverse City, Lansing and all over West Michigan have attended. No state level teams. Just local and regional programs. This is our 7th year running this smaller event and it has been getting better every year. Finish your summer season off right with an affordable and fun tournament designed to bring out the best in our game.
