ANNUAL AWARDS

The association calls for coaches to push their players to be more active within the community, whether it's related to lacrosse or not. This award recognizes either a coaching staff or team as a whole, that goes above and beyond for their community when outside the lines and off the field. This award is a byproduct of the Humanitarian Award, one that has only been awarded 3 times over the years of the convention. This award is presented to the Coaching Staff, rather than the players as the Humanitarian Award had done in previous years.

2022 Recipient: Lafayette College

The IMLCA Extra Man Award, created in 2013, is presented annually to a university or college administrator who displays the highest level of support for the growth of lacrosse.

The IMLCA Extra Man Award recognizes administrators who have expressed efforts to grow the sport of lacrosse.
