April 27, 2022 (Global News Distribution) -
The second sold-out Champions Weekend of 2022 will feature top travel and youth sports athletes from across the country.
Chevrolet is partnering with LakePoint Sports to host the 2022 “Legends of the Spring” Champions Weekend set for Friday, April 29 – Sunday, May 1. This marks the second sold-out Champions Weekend at the country’s premier travel and youth sports destination.
The three-day event will feature competition from the nation’s top travel and youth athletes across multiple sports, including baseball, basketball, beach volleyball, and flag football. Beyond the competition, the weekend will also include a 2022 lineup of Chevrolet vehicles, DJs, partner promotions, food and beverage promotions, and live broadcast from 680 the Fan, the No. 1 sports talk radio station in the southeast, and more.
“We are excited to partner with Chevrolet for the ‘Legends of the Spring’ Champions Weekend,” said Greg Barckhoff, executive vice president of partnerships and marketing at LakePoint Sports. “They have a long history supporting travel and youth sports, so they are a natural fit to support this upcoming weekend, featuring elite travel and youth sports athletes on our campus.”
The RYZE Hoops Live Showcase highlights the “Legends of the Spring.” The showcase begins Saturday, April 30, and will include nationally-ranked high school players, including University of Georgia commit Mari Jordan (Dacula High School / Dacula, GA) and Jelani Hamilton (Cumberland Christian Academy / Austell, GA), who is still deciding. Several players expect to receive scholarship offers following the showcase, and several Power 5 programs will be live streaming the action via LakePoint Live, powered by PlaySight. Due to NCAA recruiting restrictions, Division I coaches will not be in attendance, but Division II and III coaches will be on campus.
The LakePoint Baseball Village will feature rising travel stars in the Prep Baseball Report Tournaments LakePoint Challenge. These 14-and-under players will see how they measure up against the best of the southeast.
Competition will continue at LakePoint’s newly renovated Multi-purpose Fields Complex as NFL FLAG is in the middle of its “Georgia Friday Night Lights” spring football season.
All four of LakePoint’s state-of-the-art venues will see action as Rally Volleyball will host the best beach volleyball players at the LakePoint Beach Pavilion in the southeast in the Rockin’ and Blockin’ tournament.
“We are thrilled to partner with Chevrolet for Legends of the Spring Weekend,” said LakePoint Sports director of marketing David Pate. “They are helping in our mission to create lifelong memories for the thousands of top travel athletes and families we look forward to having on our campus this weekend.”
