What are the main changes to high school boys lacrosse rules for 2022. How do the new faceoff rules impact gameplay. Why is protective equipment now mandatory for players. What other safety measures have been implemented.
Major Faceoff Rule Changes for 2022 Season
The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) and USA Lacrosse have approved significant changes to faceoff rules for the 2022 high school boys lacrosse season. These modifications stem from temporary COVID-19 measures implemented in the previous season and aim to create fairer and safer faceoffs.
Key Faceoff Rule Updates
- Officials will now place the ball on the ground to indicate faceoff placement
- Players must stand rather than kneel during faceoffs
- The “moto-grip” technique is now restricted in favor of a standing neutral grip
- New rules aim to limit extended stalemates during faceoffs
- Players must prioritize playing the ball over immediate body-checking
How do these changes affect faceoff dynamics? The new standing position and neutral grip requirements create a more level playing field, reducing the advantage of specialized faceoff techniques. Additionally, the focus on playing the ball rather than immediately engaging in physical contact promotes a smoother transition into open play.
Enhanced Player Safety Measures
Player safety remains a top priority for the NFHS and USA Lacrosse. The 2022 rules changes include several important updates aimed at minimizing injury risks during gameplay.
Mandatory Protective Equipment
Perhaps the most significant safety-related change is the new requirement for all players to wear a protective cup or pelvic protector. This shift from a recommendation to a mandatory rule addresses the serious risk of blunt trauma injuries to the groin area.
Why is this change so important? Protective cups can prevent severe injuries such as:
- Internal bleeding
- Testicular fracture or rupture
- Permanent damage to reproductive organs
It’s worth noting that players are personally responsible for wearing and properly maintaining this protective equipment. Coaches will verify compliance through a certification process, rather than relying on officials to perform equipment checks.
Additional Safety Rules
Other safety-focused changes for the 2022 season include:
- Prohibiting body-checks on players in defenseless positions, including those lying on the ground
- Restricting body-checks during faceoffs while players are still in their initial positions
- Clarifying illegal body-check scenarios, such as when an opponent has any body part other than feet on the ground
Impact on Faceoff Strategy and Gameplay
The new faceoff rules are expected to have a significant impact on game strategy and player techniques. How will these changes affect team tactics?
- Teams may need to adjust their faceoff specialist training
- The emphasis on playing the ball could lead to quicker transitions and more dynamic gameplay
- Coaches may need to reconsider player positioning and movement immediately following faceoffs
These changes aim to create a more balanced and fair faceoff process while reducing the risk of injury during this crucial aspect of the game.
Responsibilities of Game Officials and Table Crew
The 2022 rules update also addresses the roles of timekeepers and table keepers. Previous rules placed certain responsibilities on volunteer table crew members that often put them in difficult situations. How have these duties been adjusted?
- Certain timekeeping and scorekeeping tasks may be reassigned
- Officials may take on additional responsibilities to ensure accurate game management
- The changes aim to reduce pressure on volunteer crew members and improve overall game flow
These adjustments should help create a smoother experience for both officials and support staff during games.
Adapting to the New Rules: Challenges and Opportunities
As with any significant rule changes, players, coaches, and officials will face a period of adjustment as they implement the new regulations. What challenges and opportunities might arise from these updates?
Potential Challenges
- Retraining faceoff specialists to adapt to the standing neutral grip requirement
- Ensuring all players comply with the new protective equipment mandates
- Educating officials on the nuances of the updated faceoff and body-checking rules
Opportunities for Improvement
- Enhanced player safety through reduced injury risks
- More equitable faceoff competitions, potentially leading to increased parity among teams
- Smoother game flow with clearer guidelines for officials and table crew
How can teams best prepare for these changes? Coaches should focus on incorporating the new rules into practice sessions, emphasizing proper techniques and safety measures. Players may need to adjust their conditioning and training routines to accommodate the standing faceoff position.
Long-term Implications for High School Boys Lacrosse
The 2022 rule changes represent a significant evolution in high school boys lacrosse. What potential long-term effects might these updates have on the sport?
- Increased emphasis on overall athleticism rather than specialized faceoff techniques
- Potential reduction in certain types of injuries, leading to longer and healthier playing careers
- Changes in recruiting strategies for college programs, with less focus on dedicated faceoff specialists
- Possible influence on professional and international lacrosse rules in the future
As the sport continues to grow and evolve, these rule changes may help shape the future of lacrosse at all levels of play.
Implementing the New Rules: Guidelines for Coaches and Officials
Successful adoption of the 2022 rule changes will require cooperation and diligence from coaches, officials, and administrators. What steps can be taken to ensure smooth implementation?
For Coaches
- Review the new rules thoroughly with assistant coaches and players
- Modify practice drills and scrimmages to reflect updated faceoff and body-checking regulations
- Emphasize the importance of proper protective equipment and ensure compliance
- Develop new strategies that capitalize on the changes to faceoff dynamics
For Officials
- Attend training sessions and seminars focused on the new rules
- Practice identifying legal and illegal faceoff techniques in game-like situations
- Communicate clearly with players and coaches about rule interpretations
- Be prepared to explain and enforce the new safety-related regulations
For Administrators
- Ensure all relevant staff and volunteers are informed about the rule changes
- Update any necessary documentation or guidelines for game management
- Consider hosting informational sessions for parents and spectators to explain the new rules
By taking a proactive approach to rule implementation, the lacrosse community can work together to create a safer and more enjoyable experience for all participants.
The Future of High School Boys Lacrosse: Trends and Predictions
As the sport of lacrosse continues to evolve, the 2022 rule changes may be just the beginning of a broader shift in how the game is played and officiated. What trends might we see in the coming years?
Potential Future Developments
- Further refinements to faceoff rules to balance competitiveness and safety
- Increased use of technology in officiating and game management
- Growing emphasis on player safety, potentially leading to additional equipment requirements
- Evolution of offensive and defensive strategies in response to rule changes
- Expansion of the sport into new regions and demographics
How might these potential changes impact the overall landscape of high school boys lacrosse? As the sport grows in popularity and sophistication, we may see:
- Increased media coverage and public interest in high school lacrosse
- More diverse playing styles and tactics emerging from different regions
- Enhanced player development programs focusing on overall athleticism and versatility
- Greater integration of data analytics in coaching and player evaluation
While it’s impossible to predict the exact future of the sport, the 2022 rule changes demonstrate a commitment to fairness, safety, and the overall quality of play in high school boys lacrosse.
Conclusion: Embracing Change for a Better Game
The 2022 high school boys lacrosse rule changes represent a significant step forward in the evolution of the sport. By addressing key areas such as faceoff dynamics, player safety, and game management, these updates aim to create a more equitable, safer, and enjoyable experience for all participants.
As players, coaches, officials, and fans adapt to these new regulations, it’s important to remember the underlying goals: to promote fair competition, minimize injury risks, and maintain the integrity of the game. While change can be challenging, it also brings opportunities for growth, innovation, and improvement.
The lacrosse community’s ability to embrace these changes and work together to implement them effectively will play a crucial role in shaping the future of the sport. By focusing on education, communication, and a shared commitment to the spirit of the game, high school boys lacrosse can continue to thrive and evolve in the years to come.
Faceoffs, Risk Minimization Areas of Focus for 2022 High School Boys Lacrosse Rules Changes
NEWS RELEASE
Faceoffs, Risk Minimization Areas of Focus for 2022 High School Boys Lacrosse Rules Changes
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: James Weaver
INDIANAPOLIS, IN (August 30, 2021) — Modifications introduced to the faceoff rule in high school boys lacrosse during last season as a result of COVID-19 proved to be a major focal point with changes adopted for the 2022 season. The change coincides with addressing risk minimization for the upcoming season, including the newly added requirement of a protective cup or pelvic protector to limit blunt trauma injuries.
A combined 15 rules changes were proposed by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS)/USA Lacrosse Boys Lacrosse Rules Committee at its virtual rules meeting held July 12-14.
All 15 proposals were later approved by the NFHS and USAL Boards of Directors. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, no rules were proposed or changed for boys lacrosse last year.
“High school boys lacrosse participation during the COVID-19 pandemic proved to be an eye-opening experience,” said James Weaver, NFHS director of sports and liaison to the Boys Lacrosse Rules Committee. “This past season, a COVID-19 modification was implemented for faceoffs to assist with distance between players. Consequently, the committee saw this as a positive change for the sport that ultimately allowed for a fairer and safer faceoff format. That change is evident elsewhere, as many area of the rules addressing faceoffs and player safety have received changes for the betterment of all players and officials.”
Changes made to faceoffs by the NFHS Boys Lacrosse Rules Committee most significantly impact Rule 4-3-3. Due to last season’s COVID-19 modifications, officials first placed the ball on the ground to indicate placement of the faceoff.
This rule change, which provides a visible marker for player setup, addresses players standing rather than kneeling. (Rule 4-3-3a, f and g). The change also restricts players from using the “moto-grip” to favor a standing neutral grip, creating a fairer and safer faceoff.
As an added effort to also limit extended stalemates, the rules committee adopted new language for Rule 4-3-3. The new Rule 4-3-3i was added to ensure that faceoff players play the ball and prohibit an immediate body-check to their opponent.
“These major changes to the faceoff rule were very well received by the lacrosse community, Weaver said. “They will ultimately serve to keep the faceoff fair, while also reducing the risk of injury during the faceoff.”
Two other rules are impacted by the addition of Rule 4-3-3i.
Faceoff players who are in a potentially vulnerable position are the benefactors of new clarifications to Rule 4-4-2. At the sound of the whistle to start play, when players in wing areas are released, they must avoid body-checking faceoff players who are battling for control of the ball while still in their initial faceoff spot.
Rule 5-3-3 received new language specifying it is considered an illegal body-check when the opponent has any part of the body other than the feet on the ground, as well as when the player is crouched for a faceoff.
The continued focus on risk minimization impacts Rule 1-9-1f, as the rules committee shifted from recommending a protective cup to now requiring it or a pelvic protector for all players.
“One of the core beliefs of the NFHS is to minimize the inherent risk of sports,” Weaver said. “A protective cup helps prevent blunt trauma injuries to the groin area that can cause serious damage, including severe bruising, internal bleeding, testicular fracture or rupture. This can have serious, if not permanent damage to athletes.”
With the change to Rule 1-9-1f comes the addition that each player is personally responsibly for wearing the protective cup or pelvic protector. It also shall not be modified from the manufactured state and shall be worn in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
“One of the biggest concerns for opponents to this rule is that officials cannot and should not check to see if a player is wearing a protective cup,” Weaver added. “Protective cups should only be verified through the coaches’ certification process.”
Other risk minimization changes include Rule 5-4-5, which addresses situations in which it is illegal to body-check players in defenseless positions. The newly adopted prohibition specifies that a player shall not body-check the opponent, who is considered a defenseless player, while the player is lying on the ground.
The rules committee also agreed on changes to responsibilities of the timekeeper and table keeper.
Previously, Rule 2-8-2e included responsibilities for the volunteer table crew that often put them in the role of a game official. Among those duties was sounding the horn twice at the next dead ball when a player not legally in the game enters the field of play, and when a substituting player deliberately delays entry onto the field.
That language and more has since been eliminated, which restructured the rule to put the responsibilities in the hands of trained officials.
“The NFHS Boys Lacrosse Rules Committee continues to make improvements to the health and safety of the student-athletes, while also keeping the game enjoyable to play and watch,” Weaver said. “Over the past several years, the committee has been successful in reducing injuries and we hope these changes will continue to allow the sport to grow in popularity.”
For more information on these boys lacrosse rules changes, as well as all changed approved by the committee, a complete listing will be available on the NFHS website at www.nfhs.org. Click on “Activities & Sports” at the top of the home page and select “Lacrosse-Boys.”
According to the most recent NFHS High School Athletics Participation Survey, 113,702 boys participate in lacrosse in 3,026 high schools across the country.

Nick Sakevich – the man who gave NLL a new life.
(part three) » AllLacrosse.org
Dear friends, after the first two parts, we return to the work done by Nick Sakevich, during his time as Commissioner of the National Lacrosse League.
The most recent move to expand the League has certainly been the most compelling as it was revealed that Joe Tsai (owner of the San Diego Seals NLL team) would lead another franchise ownership group, this time with Wayne Gretzky. , Dustin Johnson and Steve Nash. The Las Vegas Desert Dogs will start the 2022-23 season as the 15th team in the league.
Sakevich: “We had a lot of interest in Vegas. Over a two-year period, we were in Vegas about half a dozen to a dozen times, meeting with various investors interested in the market. Ultimately, in late 2019/early 2020, we had a lot of interest from a certain group, but around the same time, we got to know Wayne through his agent and heard the story of how he grew up playing lacrosse in the South Ontario. It’s just an amazing story that his lacrosse game really helped him become one of the greatest hockey players of all time.
But Wayne needed to find a partner. He didn’t want to start on his own. I then briefed the expansion committee on Wayne and his desire to work in the market, either in LA or Las Vegas, and then I got a call from Steve Govett who said that Joe might be interested in partnering with Wayne. We set Wayne up with Joe, and all of a sudden we had a second group of owners wanting to enter the market. The group eventually grew to four people, Joe, Wayne, Dustin Johnson and Steve Nash, add the power of MGM (hotel and entertainment business, not to be confused with the film studio – author’s note), which offered a partnership deal, their package was very, very strong.”
Nick Sakevich was convinced that further expansion of the NLL was expected, and “probably by the end of this decade the number of teams in the League will reach 22 teams, and by 2035 – 30 teams”. According to Sakevich, in the short term, the 16th team is likely to be based in the US, while the league’s 17th club is potentially based in Canada.
But working with franchises is not the only place where Nick proved to be an excellent functionary. October 26, 2021 – The National Lacrosse League (NLL) announced the largest media rights deal in the United States ever with ESPN. ESPN and ESPN+ were given exclusive rights to broadcast NLL live in the US and the rest of the world except Canada. In Canada, TSN owns such rights (30% of the shares are owned by ESPN).
“We are so proud and thrilled to be working with ESPN and ESPN+ on this unprecedented milestone for the NLL. Never before in the League’s 35-year history have fans, sponsors, teams and players had such access to media resources across the United States and the world,” says Nick Sakevich. “While we, our sport and the industry, continue to focus on working with fans on the ground, we will also benefit from increased viewer reach through live streaming on ESPN’s linear networks. Over the past few years, we have steadily developed our media strategy and strived for this kind of agreement, and we are pleased with the momentum such an announcement generates.
”
This is the work done by Nick Sakevich as National Lacrosse League commissioner. This is only the visible part, and how much we do not see. But unfortunately, he left for the NHL, namely the Arizona Coyotes team. We wish him success in his new business. As well as wish success to Brett Froude, continue the successful promotion of the League, and achieve even more.
