ABOUT MAXIM

MAXIM Lacrosse is more than just a travel club—we’re a lacrosse family, run by a lacrosse family. Built on tradition, heart, and a commitment to excellence, MAXIM is where athletes come to grow—not just as players, but as people.

Founded and led by the Kortowich family, our program reflects the values we hold closest: integrity, hard work, and a deep love for the game. The name “MAXIM” itself is part of our family heritage, passed down from Todd’s great-grandfather and proudly carried by our son John as his middle name. It also stands for something greater: a truth, a principle, a code of conduct.

At MAXIM, we believe in showing up—for the game, for our teammates, and for ourselves.

What We Stand For

MAXIM LACROSSE WILL:

  • Mentor Northeast Ohio’s athletes to the highest level with sportsmanship as a core value

  • Focus on sharpening fundamental skills while elevating lacrosse IQ

  • Strengthen athletes for year-round performance across all sports

  • Be your lacrosse family—supportive, dependable, and passionate

How We Do It

We offer a comprehensive, year-round experience that meets players where they are—and helps them get where they want to go:

  • Highly skilled coaching staff with collegiate playing and coaching experience

  • Full player assessments and individualized feedback

  • Position-specific small group skills clinics (fall and winter)

  • Fall and summer travel teams competing at a high level

  • A culture rooted in character, competition, and community

MAXIM Lacrosse demands more than talent. We ask our athletes to embody the spirit of the game—to give and receive respect, to lead with character, and to pursue excellence with humility. We create space for passionate, high-performing athletes to come together, celebrate their accomplishments on any field, and grow as leaders and teammates.

Why MAXIM?

“MAXIM” is more than a name. It represents a way of doing things:

  • We show up.

  • We honor our word and our commitments.

  • We train with intensity, purpose, and grit.

  • We compete with class.

Backed by years of proven success, MAXIM Lacrosse is proud to be Northeast Ohio’s premier girls lacrosse program. Our strong communication with families, dedicated coaching staff, well-organized travel experiences, and trusted relationships with college programs set us apart.

Whether your athlete is dreaming of a college career or simply wants to become the best version of herself, MAXIM is here to guide, support, and inspire—every step of the way.
