Welcome back to another year of some amazing lacrosse for an outstanding cause!

It’s been called the Premier HS Girls Lax Showcase in the country, and for good reason. With 4 of the top 10 nationally ranked teams, and dozens upon dozens of college-bound players, Gains For Brains (GFB) features 20 of the the top high school girls lacrosse teams in the tri-state area (and Pennsylvania!).

The event which started in 2015, raises money to support the Making Headway Foundation, to benefit children with brain and spinal cord tumors. The showcase has been hosted at Cold Spring Harbor High School every year since inception. And although two years were lost due to covid, 2026 will be the 10th year running! Like any great event, we need everyone’s help to make this day a big success!  If you plan on spending the day with us, make a donation when you show up and come hungry! 

Our food booth has some of the most delicious home-made baked goods on Long Island. We will also have the BBQ going with hot dogs, hamburgers and of course refreshing drinks.  All the money raised from the food booth goes straight to the Foundation. 

If you can’t make it out on April 25th, then donate here.  Every dollar counts!

We hope to see you at Cold Spring Harbor High School beginning at 10am on Saturday, April 25th!
