Step 1 - Classroom Clinic
STAY TUNED FOR 2023 TRAINING DATES (FEBRUARY, 2023)
All New and Returning officials are required to annually attend a classroom clinic (virtual/online for 2021 and now, 2022). During your classroom session, experienced trainers will review the rules, game management and points of emphasis for the year.
All New Officials must attend the "New Official" Clinic. The New Official clinics will cover an in-depth review of the rules, mechanics and procedures of women's lacrosse. New Officials who register with USALacrosse will receive a USA Lacrosse Women's Rule Book. Clinic fees are $25 per New Official attendee. (Free for Returning Officials).

Step 2 - ON-FIELD TRAINING & Rating
On-field training is a very important part of building experience and confidence in a live game setting. These training days are split between Adult Officials and Junior Officials. All New Officials, All Junior Officials, and Returning Adult Officials with lapsed ratings are required to participate in on-field training to earn a current rating. The timeframe is approximately 2.5-3.5 hours. All registered new officials will receive a free "starter kit" (whistle, cards, flag) at their first field training day.
