Philadelphia, PA -  President and CEO of American Indoor Lacrosse, Johnny Mouradian, is ecstatic to announce that Glenn "The Professor" Clark has joined the AILA team. Clarks will run the indoor components for AILA's Bryn Athyn July and August camps. 

 “I have had a long relationship with Johnny and I look forward to joining his team for this exciting venture.  Johnny signed me to my first pro contract and was the GM of team Canada when I was selected to play for my country.  Johnny has developed many strong relationships in his lacrosse career, so to be asked to be a part of this project is quite an honour,” said Glenn.

 

The Professor played 17 seasons in Major Series Lacrosse, winning three Mann Cups (Canadian National Championship) and was awarded Defensive Player of the Year on five occasions with Brooklin.

During those nine years, Glenn went on to win five NLL championships, all with the Rock, tallied 37 goals, 49 assists in a total of 101 games played and was selected to three NLL All-Star games. He was also former head coach of the NLL's Toronto Rock. 

 

Clark had the opportunity to play for Team Canada in the 2002 Heritage Cup and in 2003 during the World Indoor Lacrosse Championships in which the red and white won Gold. Glenn was hired in 2011 as Team Canada's goalie coach. He will be on staff for Team Canada during the 2015 World Championships as well.
