The Top Threat Championship tournament, taking place from July 7th through July 9th, is a three-day event showcasing 174 different teams from 17 different states across the country. The event will take place on fields in three locations throughout the county, including Iron Peak in Hillsborough, Mountain Park and Pingry School in Basking Ridge.

“Iron Peak was built to provide best-in-class facilities to athletes in New Jersey and throughout the country.  It only made sense to partner with a premier organization like Top Threat on this high-level event,” states Gregg Wilke, Iron Peak’s Managing Partner. “We are excited about the opportunity this event will provide to showcase the county to athletes from across the country.” 

Out of the 174 teams, 149 are coming from out of state, driving thousands of athletes and their families to businesses throughout the county including restaurants, hotels, and tourist attractions. As part of the American Rescue plan, Somerset County provided funding to enhance the tournament.  The grant was made to increase tourism to Somerset County and to support local businesses that depend on visitors.

Top Threat Championship weekend will be highlighted by high-caliber lacrosse talent competing at remarkable facilities to over 8,000 people in attendance, including parents, club coaches and college coaches.

Girls’ Lacrosse is one of the fastest growing sports in the US and Iron Peak and Top Threat Tournaments are thrilled to be part of that growth. Iron Peak’s partnership with Triple Threat Elite Girls Lacrosse enables talent from surrounding communities to be showcased at a first-class facility throughout the year.
