STEVENS POINT, Wis. –  The first edition of the WIAA Lacrosse Season Regulations and the Tournament Procedures have been posted on the respective boys and girls home pages on the WIAA website.

At its meeting on Dec. 2, 2022, the WIAA Board of Control approved the addition of lacrosse as a sanctioned sport with a Tournament Series for boys and girls in the spring of 2024

It’s the first time an entirely new sport has been introduced for both genders since the addition of boys and girls soccer in 1982-83. Since that time, hockey and wrestling expanded to girls sponsorship in 2002 and 2022, respectively, and boys volleyball was reinstated in 2000, but those sports were already sanctioned for the other gender.
