  FH College Path is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Performance Sport Events (PSE), a nationally recognized leader in field hockey event management. This collaboration marks a major milestone in our mission to elevate the sport by creating impactful opportunities for players at every level. By joining forces with PSE, we are stepping into a new era—one defined by growth, innovation, and a renewed commitment to excellence in athlete development and opportunity. Founded and led by Ainslee Lamb, PSE is a stand-alone organization exclusively dedicated to field hockey. With its roots in the historic White Mountain Sports Camp—one of the first major field hockey camps in the United States—PSE has evolved into a powerhouse delivering camps, leagues, recruiting showcases, and premier tournaments across the country. Now operating independently after previously being part of 3StepSports, PSE is fully focused on serving the unique needs of the field hockey community. Among PSE’s flagship offerings are The College Connection Showcases, Shooting Star Tournaments, The Under Armour Select Game, and Elite Field Hockey Camps. These nationally acclaimed events are known for their quality, professionalism, and ability to provide competitive, transformative experiences for athletes. Whether it’s a U10 athlete stepping onto the turf for the first time or a high school senior chasing their college dream, PSE delivers the structure and visibility to help players grow and succeed. One of the cornerstones of PSE’s impact is The College Connection, its premier recruiting showcase. These events are meticulously designed to give participants unmatched exposure to top NCAA college coaches, both in-person and virtually. Each NCAA coach is invited to attend the showcases, with advance access to athlete profiles, team rosters, and schedules provided through NFHCARecruits, PSE’s recruiting technology partner. On-site recruiting materials further support the visibility of each player, ensuring that every participant is seen, evaluated, and given the opportunity to take their next step. As a testament to the caliber of talent present at The College Connection, select athletes are invited to compete in the prestigious Under Armour Select Game. This nationally recognized event highlights the top performers, giving them an exclusive opportunity to showcase their skills in front of a concentrated audience of college recruiters. It’s one more way PSE helps athletes gain the recognition they deserve.PSE’s influence extends across the entire field hockey ecosystem. Through its Shooting Star Tournaments, it provides athletes from U10 through Masters (35+) with elite playing experiences on top-tier synthetic turf fields. These tournaments are held nationwide and deliver on PSE’s core values of professionalism, inclusivity, and competitive integrity. Whether you’re a player, coach, official, parent, or fan, every aspect of a PSE event is designed to inspire. In addition to tournaments and showcases, PSE also offers year-round camps and leagues. Long-standing programs like the Elite Field Hockey Camp at Bentley University have set the standard for team and individual development. Starting in 2025, PSE will also launch Pre-Season Prep Camps Clinics, designed to help high school and college players prepare for their fall seasons through intensive technical and fitness-based training. Innovation remains at the heart of PSE’s model. Through integrated video recruiting services and virtual accessibility, PSE empowers athletes to be seen by coaches across the country, no matter where they play. This not only increases exposure but also levels the playing field for athletes from diverse geographic and economic backgrounds. The Commitment to the game is also apparent in the PSE Mission statement “We believe that each person deserves a place to play, compete, and grow. Combining our passion and commitment with our field hockey expertise, the team at PSE creates an ecosystem where everyone in our community has a place to excel. Your Journey Starts here.” PSE has established the Minority Matters Movement to provide scholarship allocations to those athletes needing financial assistance and to increase opportunity for both minority athletes and coaches. Behind PSE’s success is a leadership team deeply embedded in the field hockey world. Alongside CEO Ainslee Lamb, the team includes Pam Hixon (Chief Business Development Officer), Sam Carlino (Chief Operating Officer), Meg Bozek Cuthbertson (Chief Strategy Officer), Cheryl Murtagh (Controller) and Melissa Nawn (Director of Regional Events & Marketing). With decades of collective experience at the grassroots and collegiate levels, this team brings a shared vision and proven expertise to the table. “With PSE’s exclusive focus on field hockey, we can better serve the sport’s vibrant community using forward-thinking management, wellness-driven training methods, and digital innovation,” said CEO Ainslee Lamb. “We are committed to delivering programs that not only improve athletic performance but also enrich the field hockey experience as a whole." Together, we are setting a new standard in field hockey.The alignment between FH College Path and PSE is grounded in a shared purpose: supporting the next generation of field hockey talent by expanding access to meaningful, high-quality opportunities, and building a stronger future for athletes pursuing collegiate field hockey careers. From National Showcases to tailored clinics, our joint efforts will expand recruiting pipelines, support skill development, and increase visibility for players who aspire to compete at the next level.
