IMLCA Forms Committee To Evaluate The NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championships Down Attendance


Forestdale, MA (June 10, 2013) — The Intercollegiate Men’s Lacrosse Coaches Association has established a committee to evaluate the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championships; specifically the downturn in attendance.

“The IMLCA was formed to help build the game of lacrosse and monitor the integrity of the game so it is with these founding principles that the IMLCA Board of Directors has determined that the Association would be proactive in addressing this disturbing trend,” said Phil Buttafuoco, IMLCA Executive Director.

Individuals from within the coaching community, athletic administrators and the corporate world are being invited to participate on the committee. The IMLCA anticipates the committee will conduct several conference calls during the months of June and July and submit a position paper to the NCAA for consideration during the summer meeting of the NCAA Divisions I, II and III Men’s Lacrosse Committees.
