USA LACROSSE MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED

A current USA Lacrosse Membership is required for all programs. When registering, our system validates USA Lacrosse Memberships. When registering, please ensure your player's name, zip code, and date of birth match the information in your USA Lacrosse Membership or may not be able to complete the registration due to membership validation problems.

If your player is interested in even more lacrosse experience throughout the year, they may be interested in playing  with a club lacrosse team in addition to their Edina Lacrosse Association team. Many clubs have their tryouts starting mid-to-late July and into early August with additional tryout opportunities throughout the year. Visit our Club/Travel Teams page for details and links to clubs in the area.

Girls K-14U and Boys 8U-14U require full lacrosse gear.   Click on one of the images to learn more about gear requirements.

**Hockey pads and helmets may not be used for any of our lacrosse programs. Like most lacrosse associations, our insurance is provided through USA Lacrosse. USA Lacrosse mandates that we use lacrosse specific helmets and pads and will deny coverage should an injury occur while wearing non-compliant helmet and gear. ***

Game officials are staffed by UMLOA (Upper Midwest Lacrosse Officials Association).  UMLOA is looking to add officials!    They have a great training program, plus flexible scheduling.
