Coaches Education Program With the explosive growth of the sport of lacrosse around the country, the need for knowledgeable, experienced coaches is greater than ever before. US Lacrosse is committed to providing opportunities to develop these important leaders, through online offerings, clinics and comprehensive certification. This is a great way to learn the game as a new coach or to fill in some tactics, strategies and positive coaching aspects for an experienced coach.

Officials Education Program Are you ready for the stripes? US Lacrosse offers comprehensive training for both new and advancing men's and women's lacrosse officials in many locations throughout the country. Contact officials@uslacrosse.org to find out more about men's lacrosse officials' training in your area. If you want to get more information on getting certified for women's lacrosse in your area, please contact your local board of the Women's Division Official Council (WDOC).
The US Lacrosse/Nationwide Insurance Parents' Guide US Lacrosse also offers an informative guide to parents. This guide, developed in cooperation with Nationwide Insurance, is an introduction for parents who are relatively new to the game of lacrosse. We hope to provide information - ranging from game rules to equipment needs - that will help them in your understanding of the sport.
