West Coast Force To Tour Japan In 2017

One international tour for women's lacrosse players is on tap for West Coast Force in 2017. A West Coast Force team of women is going to Japan. The Japan Tour is open to the first 20 players who register and pay their $750 deposit to hold a spot on the tour. The early bird price is $3,950 and the regular registration is $4,250. 

Two teams will go out on the Japan Tour, June 20th - July 3rd. The Open Team is for players who have completed at least one year of college. The U19 team is for players who are in high school or entering college. It is the fifth time we've toured Japan and we will visit Nagoya, Mt. Fuji and Tokyo. Games will be played mostly against university teams and regional select teams. Here's our video from our 2012 trip to Japan. Read a great letter we received after our 2012 Japan Tour.
