AILA leagues are operating in various locations throughout the Unites States. New leagues are being formed every season to accommodate the tremendous interest among lacorsse players wanting to learn the indoor game.
AILA leagues are designed to reinforce the key aspects of the indoor game through instructional and competitive formats and assist players in learning the unique skills, techniques, strategies, and tactics of indoor lacrosse and their application to the field game environment.
Our indoor lacrosse platform works in concert with facilities to provide structure and support through the American Indoor Lacrosse Association and the American Indoor Lacrosse Academy to develop, grow, and manage indoor lacrosse programs and leagues at qualified facilities.
There are three types of facilities that meet the playing standards with respect to configuration:
The measurements must be at least 175 x 70 feet, glass, boards and in the case of an indoor soccer facility, the goals must filled with boards during lacrosse play. There are other standards that AIL will discuss we each facility.
The American Indoor Lacrosse Association has identified the official season for indoor lacrosse participation to ensure maximum participation and minimal conflict or disruption of other traditional lacrosse activities including the field Spring season; peak field college-recruiting periods; and regional preferences and requirements.
Officially, the AILA Indoor Lacrosse Season runs each year from June through February. The following chart provides details of how each season may be divided to accommodate any potential conflicts:
| Session | Dates | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Session 1 | June - August | This summer session is structured to avoid potential conflicts with the cionclusion of the spring field season as well as allow flexibility in scheduling to avoid disruptions or conflicts with elite field program paticipation and requirements |
| Session 2 | September - November | The Fall session may be organized to take advantage of down-time be scheduling activities around the prime Fall college recruiting period in November |
| Session 3 | December - February | The Winter session is ideal to take advantage of cold-weather climates and to use indoor leagues and training to gear up for the upcoming field Spring season. Leagues are typically scheduled to conclude as Spring season begins |
