8 Years ago, October 21, 2018, Top String Lacrosse did our first tournament/event setup. For years before a few of us worked at ComLax, but this was the first public event that we started out under our own banner. Stringing out of the garage was one thing but going to event was the first were going to do this for real moment. The setup is laughable in retrospect, but it was a start. In a million years we could have never have dreamed that events would take us to over 15 states and our company would grow to 3 stores with daily web shipping around the country.
Do the Work. Do the Right Thing. Everything Earned.
Thank you to our incredible team members over the years and all of you that we have met over the years!

May 25, 2019. After opening our first store in December of 2018 and after around 10 events, we could finally afford our first tent that actually had our own name and logos on it!
November 2, 2020. After a better part of year doing everything we could to keep Top String Lacrosse going through the pandemic, we loaded up and drove through the night to Fort Wayne, Indiana for our first out of state tournament.
We took the most stuff we have brought to a tournament and quickly realized we needed a bigger tent but the blue canopy would have to do for this one.
This is where we first met a great friend to us over the year Chip Vasquez Chip Vasquez
June 6, 2021. We got that bigger tent and we decided how can anyone miss the big yellow tent in the middle of the field?
This is at the very first wpylax Championship Weekend!
June 12, 2021. This was our first tournament event in Nashville. It was a huge eye opening experience on how we had to change our setup and how to prepare in general for tournaments. We LITERALLY strung through the night with no sleep to get the job done!
Tournaments are not always fun when the weather doesn't cooperate, this was our original tent and the first tent we ever lost to the wind. Sadly it has happened more than once and as any seasoned tournament vendor can tell you, it's GOING TO HAPPEN.
Ryan Fuchs was a huge help to us in these early days. Alway
