Membership

The Eastern Massachusetts Girls Lacrosse Coaches Association (EMGLCA) has experienced rapid growth in recent years. Now representing more than 150 member programs, the organization is working to address the opportunities and challenges that come with this expansion. To support its continued development, the EMGLCA is in the process of formalizing as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

To assist with this process, the EMGLCA will be reimplementing a membership dues structure starting with the 2026 season.  Membership dues are necessary for our organization because they will provide essential funding that will create a predictable revenue stream that supports our operations and long-term sustainability.  Additionally, the EMGLCA is looking to sustain community engagement, helping to foster a stronger, more engaged membership base.  And finally, membership dues will ensure our members receive valuable benefits. 

Membership dues aren’t just about money—they’re about commitment, shared identity, and sustaining a mission-driven community.  We are grateful for your support.

DUES

All dues are collected annually, and the fees will be determined in January prior to the upcoming high school lacrosse season.  Dues must be paid by April 1st in order for a coach to be considered an active member for that year.

  • 2026 Season Membership Dues
    • $50 if paid by April 1, 2026
    • A $25 late fee will be applied for any membership dues paid after May 1st.
  • If a coach has a student‑athlete ranked at the top of their league but is not currently a member, the coach may obtain membership by paying the current membership fee, the applicable late fee, and the membership fee for the following season.
  • Paid via check or Venmo.

Eastern Massachusetts High School Girls Varsity Lacrosse coaches who are current EMGLCA members will receive: 

  • Two (2) EMGLCA Senior Award Recipients
  • One (1) EMGLCA All-Academic Award Recipient
  • Consideration for EMGLCA All-Star Honorable Mention or All-Star status
