Background Screening Information

USA Lacrosse used the services of the National Center for Safety Initiatives to screen members who participate with USA Lacrosse in capacities that require a background screening.

This screening is required for USA Lacrosse member coaches to hold a current USA Lacrosse coaching certification of any level and special events coach and chaperones. USA Lacrosse does not currently accept screenings through other agencies.

The screening is good for two years. USA Lacrosse revokes the membership and declines certification for individuals who do not meet the criteria for "green light" status with the National Center for Safety Initiatives according to the standards established by USA Lacrosse based on national guidelines and recommendations for adults involved in youth sport.
