Physical and mental health & safety are at the forefront of USA Lacrosse's priorities.
From concussion awareness to cardiac safety, from mental health to protective equipment, USA Lacrosse seeks to work with all within the lacrosse community to encourage and promote the safest possible environment for lacrosse participants. Best practices developed by industry experts, research-driven guidelines, and vigorous advocacy help drive the national governing body's safety strategies.
Research, Innovation, and Knowledge
Bridging the gap between scientific research and sport is accomplished by generating new knowledge, translating existing evidence, and applying this information to lacrosse. The Center is committed to being involved with innovative, lacrosse-specific research that supports its three foundational pillars.
