If you love the sport or are just intrigued by it, and are willing to do what it takes to become an official, we are here to help you. GLOA has a nationally recognized training program. No experience officiating or with lacrosse is necessary. You will be able to work lots of games, have the opportunity to advance quickly, work with some great folks, stay in shape and earn some extra cash. Most of all you will help grow the game of lacrosse in Georgia!
