Baltimore- July 22

US Lacrosse today launched the Level 1 online courses of its new Coaches Education Program via the US Lacrosse web site, www.uslacrosse.org, as announced by Katherine Clark, associate director of programs at US Lacrosse. The Level 1 online courses are for men’s and women’s lacrosse coaches that have little or no previous experience in coaching lacrosse. The goal of Level 1 is to prepare coaches to work with youth and/or beginning players.

US Lacrosse partnered with NetSol Technologies, Inc., which provided the e-learning technology to make online access and structure possible. To access the Coaches Education Program Level 1 online courses use this web address: http://www.uslacrosse.org/cec/index.php.  

"To launch the Level 1 online courses is extremely exciting for us, but this is just the beginning to what we hope will become the ultimate coaching authority and resource for coaches, players and fans of all levels," said Clark, who serves as the Project Manager for the Coaches Education Program.

The first level online courses have been in development for over two years. There are two more levels that are currently in development, Level 2 and Level 3, with the entire Coaches Education Program slated to be in completed by the end of 2006.

"We hope to provide an easily accessible, comprehensive educational resource to those new to lacrosse," said Clark. "Quality coaching of current and future players is absolutely crucial to providing a positive lacrosse experience, honoring the game, and ensuring the success and growth of the sport."

The Coaches Education Program would not have been possible without the help of the US Lacrosse staff and the Coaches Education Committee which is chaired by University of Delaware men’s lacrosse coach Bob Shillinglaw. The project received funding from the Men’s Division Coaches Council, the Women’s Division, and the Intercollegiate Women’s Lacrosse Coaches Association.

US Lacrosse, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is the national governing body of men’s and women’s lacrosse. For more information, visit its eb site at www.uslacrosse.org.
