The lacrosse tournament in Grand Rapids continues to grow and get better each year. In 2012 42 teams competed in 5 divisions and there were over 800 kids participating. Teams from Canada, northern Minnesota and the Twin Cities all traveled to Grand Rapids to compete.

All tie games were determined by braveheart which resulted in several exciting finishes and cheers that could be heard on the other side of the golf course where the games are played. An all team photo and hole shoot were fun events and many teams got together for dinner after Saturdays games.
Northern teams fared well, with the Duluth-Superior 7/8 team finishing the tournament with a perfect 5-0 record and championship in that division. The offense was clicking the entire tournament for the Duluth team who scored double digit goals in every game they played.
The Grand Rapids Shootout is turning into one of the premier lacrosse events in the state of Minnesota. The Grand Rapids lacrosse program should be commended for a job very well done. Teams are already looking forward to next year.
