Your seeing more and more Canadians going to U.S. Prep Schools and Colleges. It there a lacrosse hotbed in Canada, where are most of them coming from and who are the next group of unsigned players coming soon?

Canada is basically a hotbed but the majority of canadian players just concentrate on box and end up playing Jr A, Jr B and NLL. I think the NLL used to be like 95% canadian. But lately more and more canadians are venturing into field lax and liker you said playing college ball. Canada's hotbed is Ontario for sure, but BC and Alberta both have pretty good lacrosse( correct me if im wrong)

In the future i see alot of canadians guys in the NCAA and MLL Just like there is more and more americans in the NLL every year. Its almost like we are venturing into into eachothers territory's.

I'm pretty sure box is becoming less popular.
for sure it is what most canadians play, but in the school systems in ontario we play field lacrosse.

I watched the Midget Field Finals in Ontario last weekend, and saw some of the best young lacrosse players I've seen for some time. Final game was Oshawa Blue Knights and Halton Hills. Some incredibly gifted athletes who I'm certain you will see play some Prep School or U.S. University ball.
