Becoming A Boy’s Lacrosse Officials in West Virginia

Training classes to become a lacrosse official to work boys' games in West Virginia for the Mountaineer Lacrosse Officials Association (MLOA) will be held in January to March.  To become an official, you have to complete several requirements.  (1) You must become a US Lacrosse member as an official, (2) take the online US Lacrosse training class and then participate in (3) the local training class that the MLOA will hold online and in person.  Here are the steps:

Step 1)    First, you must join USA Lacrosse as an official.  If you are already a USA Lacrosse member, but not as an official, you will have to have your membership updated to reflect that you now want to be an official as well.  You may need to call in to USA Lacrosse to have it updated manually by a staff member if you are unable to do yourself online.  If you need to join USA Lacrosse, you can follow this link to become a member.

The 2022 Season will feature some new teams.  At the October 3rd WVSLA meeting, the WVSLA added five new programs to the state league.  The Eastern Panhandle added Musselman and Martinsburg Ladies teams, while Hedgesville and Jefferson added additional boys programs.  On the state's western side, the Mountain State Vikings boys team became the newest program.  

The WVSLA  adjusted the Boys' Division II east conferences to include Hedgesville, Jefferson, Martinsburg, Musselman, Preston, and Buckhannon moved to the western division.   The Eastern Girls' Division will see the addition of the Lady Bulldogs and the Lady Applemen.   Good luck to the new teams as they help "Grow The WV Game."
