cat-7 lacrosse

CAT-7 Lacrosse is an elite, girls-only travel program based in Tampa, Florida, designed to develop powerful athletes and confident leaders. Inspired by the unstoppable force of a Category 7 hurricane, we offer high-level coaching, competitive tournament play, and a team-first culture that empowers girls lacrosse players to rise above the standard.

At CAT-7, we don’t just play the game — we change it.

What makes cat-7 different?

We’re more than just another travel team. At CAT-7, we’ve built a program with purpose — one that puts player development, character, and coaching quality at the forefront. Here’s what sets us apart:

More Than Just Lacrosse Players

We’re developing strong athletes, confident girls, and exceptional teammates. Our goal is to build leaders — on the field, in the huddle, and in life.

Elite, Experienced Coaching

Our staff brings years of high-level playing and coaching experience to every practice and game. There are no parent coaches and no “daddy ball” — just committed, knowledgeable professionals dedicated to your athlete’s growth.

Recruiting Expertise That’s Unmatched

Program director Erin Fitzgerald Ebert has lived every side of the recruiting process — as a Division I athlete, as a college recruiter, and as a high school coach and private trainer helping girls reach the next level. We know what it takes — and we’re here to guide your family through it.

Intentional Development Every Step of the Way

We don’t just roll out the balls and scrimmage. Every drill, practice plan, and coaching cue is designed to help our players progress with purpose. We focus on developing lacrosse IQ — teaching our girls how to see the field, make smart decisions, and truly understand the game. Through innovative training, structured feedback, and consistent mentorship, our athletes grow with every rep — and we’re building a team that’s prepared to compete with the best, not just play in the lower brackets.

What’s with the name?

CAT-7 is more than a name — it’s a legacy.

The “Cat” pays tribute to our founder, Erin Fitzgerald Ebert, who played Division I lacrosse at Northwestern University, home of the Wildcats. The number 7 was the jersey she proudly wore throughout her collegiate career.

Together, CAT-7 also echoes the unstoppable force of a Category 7 hurricane — a level of intensity that exceeds the current scale. That’s the kind of energy we bring to the field: relentless, bold, and built to break boundaries.
