Currently, PCLI does not require coaches to be certified by US Lacrosse. However, for insurance purposes, we require that all youth coaches have a current US Lacrosse membership for Coach participation.

Once you have a US Lacrosse membership for Coach participation and your US Lacrosse online account, you will have access to many free resources, including the Level 1 online courses (Fundamentals of Coaching Boys' Lacrosse and Fundamentals of Coaching Girls' Lacrosse). We strongly recommend that you complete at least the following courses:

• PCA Courses (Positive Coaching Alliance)

  • PCA: Double-Goal Coach® 1: Coaching For Winning & Life Lessons

  • PCA: Double-Goal Coach 2: Culture, Practices and Games

  • PCA Double-Goal Coach® Developing Triple-Impact Competitors

• Lacrosse Athlete Development Model

  • Multiple webinar recordings

• Coach Courses/Sessions

  • LaxPrep - Lower Extremity Injury Prevention Training

  • Level 1 Courses

    • Fundamentals of Coaching Girls' Lacrosse-Level 1
