The MCLA has decided to hold off on admitting club teams from varsity schools upon the request of the Varsity Coaches Council and US Lacrosse. There is a concern among some varsity coaches that MCLA lacrosse could influence the loss of more varsity programs as athletic directors see the success of “virtual varsity” club teams on their campuses at minimal cost to the school. The MCLA has received applications from club programs on varsity campuses, but so far the Board has honored the Varsity Coaches Council request.
