MIAA GIRLS LACROSSE COMMITTEE MEETING NOTES
MIAA Girls Lacrosse Super 8/1A Tournament Sub-Committee – FEEDBACK REQUESTED!
The MIAA Girls Lacrosse committee has been asked by the MIAA’s Tournament Management Committee (TMC) to examine the interest and viability for a Girls Lacrosse 1A/Super 8 tournament. A subcommittee has been formed to look into this and provide feedback, recommendations, and potentially a proposal for a 1A format. The purpose of this survey is to give coaches and opportunity to provide feedback directly to the committee that will inform any such proposals. There has been discussion among other MIAA sports committees about creating (or reinstating in some cases) a Super 8/1A Tournament.
A Super 8 tournament is a postseason format designed to bring together the top eight teams—regardless of division—to compete in a high‑level, elite bracket. It’s used in some sports to create a “best of the best” championship experience.
Please take a moment to complete the survey below! Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
