IMLCA Membership--New Format to include NILCA Membership

NEW IMLCA Membership Structure Announcement

-Coaches -
While the 2018 season has recently come to a conclusion, IMLCA planning for the upcoming year is already in full swing. As the IMLCA rapidly become the premier organization in the sport of lacrosse, we will be announcing several initiatives, updates, and improvements that will be implemented during the year's off season. 
Traditionally, the only path to 'membership' and the benefits thereof, to the IMLCA was to attend the annual convention. In order to expand our presence within the lacrosse community and bring awareness to the resources available for our coaches on a year round basis, we will be introducing a new fee structure for annual IMLCA Membership. Below is an introduction to our IMLCA Membership. Further details and instructions will continued to be released in the upcoming days. 
It is through strength in numbers that our organization will be able to successfully lead the charge in growing the game, honoring our history, educating lacrosse coaches, and providing and open forum for coaches to present issues worthy of discussion within the sport. With your continued participation, the IMLCA will become an event stronger resource for us all. The Board of Directors asks all coaches to move forward into this new chapter with us.

IMLCA, President
 
ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP INTRODUCTION
Membership for the 2018 - 2019 is currently open for registration on the New IMLCA Website. The term will conclude June 30, 2019. We will prompt all coaches to renew their IMLCA Membership status on an annual basis. 
 
MEMBERSHIP DUES
Our Board of Directors has selected the following for annual membership dues. 
NCAA (DI, DII, DII) & NAIA - $50 / Individual Coach
HIGH SCHOOL - $40 / Individual Coach
While a coach can register for membership at any point in the year, annual membership dues will not be pro-rated. Therefore registration is most beneficial when completed closest to the starting date of the annual term (July 1, 2018).
