USL Introducing Age-Appropriate Rules for Youth Lacrosse
Under the direction of the US Lacrosse Board of Directors, the organization is working on developing age-appropriate, national rules of play for youth boys’ lacrosse and youth girls’ lacrosse. US Lacrosse staff and volunteers have surveyed more than 50 youth leagues nationwide to better understand the landscape of current rules being used around the country.

That information, combined with additional input from coaches, officials, administrators, youth players and parents as well as the USL Sports Science & Safety Committee, forms the basis of the newly proposed rules that were voted on and passed by the US Lacrosse Board of Directors in September for implementation for the 2012 season. The new youth lacrosse rules will be published in various US Lacrosse media, including a printed guidebook that is under production. Read More Here
