Welcome to the Michigan Lacrosse Officials Association, Inc (MichLOA) web site. We are a statewide organization with a mission beyond making calls on the field and interpreting the rules of the game. Our broader goal is to promote the establishment, maintenance and implementation of the highest standards of integrity, honesty, ethics and consistency in the administration of lacrosse officiating at all levels of competition. Further, we will foster and encourage fair play and sportsmanship among officials, coaches, players and spectators.
This web site is designed to provide information about the sport of lacrosse and the rules which govern its play. If you are interested in learning more about becoming an official, visit our Recruitment page. If you are a coach, player or interested spectator and have a question about the rules, please see our Rules page.
Lacrosse is called the "fastest game on two feet" and it is also the fastest growing sport in our community, dating back to Revolutionary times. It affords each of its participants an opportunity to grow as an individual, learning the values of teamwork. We will do our utmost to make your participation in lacrosse an enjoyable and beneficial experience.
—Brian Effinger, Past-President, MichLOA
