On Jan. 14, the US Lacrosse Board of Directors unanimously approved a new organizational structure for US Lacrosse that will better serve its members, constituents and the sport. The new structure will strengthen its focus on youth and chapters. After an 18-month evaluation that was directed by the 2007-2011 US Lacrosse Strategic Plan, the US Lacrosse Organizational Effectiveness Committee (OEC) recommended a number of enhancements to the operations and priorities of US Lacrosse.
The Board approved an implementation plan and timetable, as well as amended bylaws, that reflect the structural changes. The first stage of the new structure will be implemented by August 1, 2010, and additional changes are projected to be completed by December 31, 2010. The service term for individuals currently serving in Board and Division leadership positions will end on July 31, 2010.
