Purpose & InstructionsDear New Official:
Welcome to the Great Lakes Lacrosse Officials Association! Since 1983, GLLOA has been training lacrosse referees for success at the youth, indoor, high school, club, and NCAA levels. As the sport’s popularity increased, so has the need for qualified officials. With decades of experience in training lacrosse officials, we have found it invaluable for Level 1 referees to start their training with some exposure to the NFHS rule book prior to class. This provides trainees an introduction to the game of lacrosse, the field it is played on, and some officiating language.
In completing this packet, you will have achieved a basic exposure to the NFHS Boy’s Lacrosse Rules Book and with Rules 1, 2, and 3 prior to class. It will allow you to establish a base of knowledge necessary to officiate lacrosse at every level and allow us as your trainers to cover the most static and least complicated rules quicker.
The end result will be beneficial to the growth of your lacrosse officiating skills. We will have more time in class to go into greater depth covering the play of the game, personal and technical fouls, penalty enforcement, and game management topics. Furthermore, we will have time to hold practical exercises that get you on your feet and out of your seat, view more video of 2013 competition, and listen to the questions you have about “the fastest sport on two feet”. With this in mind, I encourage you to first read rules 1, 2, and 3 in your NFHS rule book prior to attending training. Then, complete and bring this packet with you to training.
This will not be turned in nor graded, but it will be valuable to know this information at the start of training. The first 30 minutes of class will be used for questions on these topics, a review of the information, and networking. Should you have questions or concerns, please feel free to reach me direct at [email protected] to share.
Welcome to the third team on the field!
David C. Krok
President, GLLOA

Rule 1: Player Equipment
Stick measurements are made from tip to tail.Legal short sticks measure 40” to 42”Legal long sticks measure 52” to 72”Always check for an end cap at the bottom of the stick.
NOTE: GLLOA does not teach nor recommend measuring goalie sticks.
Legal NFHS stick heads measurements.Width of lacrosse stick head? 6 ½” Length of lacrosse stick head? 10”
These topics will be covered in more detail in training.

Rule 1: Player Equipment
In 2014, the NFHS rules specify that any crosse used in a faceoff may not have tape on the plastic throat of the crosse head. In 2014, the NFHS rules allow for electronic equipment to be used by coaches and non-playing team members. However, it cannot be used to communicate with on field players. Rule 1-10-1h now stipulates that eye shade may be used as long as it is a single, solid stroke that does not include words, logos, symbols, or numbers. These topics will be covered in more detail in training.

present to start a game? 10 What is the maximum number of long sticks a
team can have on the field? 4 Can a team play with less than 10 players? Yes The In-Home player is listed first in the scorebook
and is always a starter. The home team coach supplies a proper field, the
time keeper, score keeper, and ball retrievers or spare lacrosse balls on the end lines.
10
Rule 2: Game PersonnelA major point of emphasis specified by the NFHS in 2014 is the use of NOCSAE standard game balls to improve the safety for the players.
In 2014, the NFHS changed Rule 2, Section 6 stating that officials authority begins when they arrive on the field and ends when they leave the immediate playing facility.
These topics will be covered in more detail in training.
11
Rule 3: Time Factors The regulation playing time of a game shall be 4
periods of 12 minutes. NOTE: The above statement applies to IHSLA Varsity
games. In the Frosh/Soph and JV games, all regular periods last 10 minutes.
After the first half, if the score differential reaches 12 goals, the clock is only stopped for time outs or injuries. This is also called “running time”.
There is a 2 minute interval between the 1st and 2nd as well as the 3rd and 4th periods.
Between the 2nd and 3rd periods, there is a 10 minute interval, unless another time is mutually agreed to by the coaches.
In the event of a tie, there will be a 2 minute interval before starting overtime.
Overtime periods last 4 minutes with 2 minute intervals between them. The first score will win the game.

RULE 4 Play of the Game
13
Pre-GameArriving & Pre-Game Meeting Communicate with your fellow officials Decide when and where to meet (45 minutes
early) Show up with something to work on Ask your partner what they are going to work
on Discuss calling the game, the teams, their
tactics Ask questions, and bring a pen and paper
14
Pre-GameTaking the Field & Coach Certifications Enter the field of play 20 to 30 minutes prior Place your items down together and orient
yourself! Certify the Home field coach first
What are their questions? Anything we should know about field, timer,
players? Anthem at 0:00, Announcements, Senior Day,
Youths the half, … Certify the Away team coach second
Inform the Away coach of the logistics. Referee is the only voice!
15
Pre-GameCoin Toss Mechanics Ten minutes before game time bring the captains out. Do not use your whistle. Home team faces the table and visiting team faces
away. The Referee does the talking. Introduce yourself and any fellow officials. Ask the visiting captain for the call, repeat the call,
toss the coin, and catch it (do not flip onto back of hand).
Ask the winning captain his choice: Goal or Alternating Possession (AP)
Position captains & signal to benches. Ask to speak to the face-off players.
16
Pre-GameLine-Up Mechanics Call the teams onto the field. Do not use your
whistle. Teams should be 5 yards apart, left shoulder
facing the goal they will defend. Check that goalie is on end closest to the goal
he will be guarding and that the In-home is on the field and at the opposite end.
Offer a very short talk and have goalies cross. The in-home must be on the field at the start
of the game.
