Starting with the 2002
season, lacrosse was
sanctioned as a high
school sport by the
California Interscholastic
Federation.
Effective in 2002, CIF
(California Interscholastic
Federation) is the governing
body for HS lacrosse
programs in the state
of California. There
are 10 sections of CIF
in the state, and in
Northern California
lacrosse is currently
being played in 4 of
those sections: Central
Coast Section (CCS),
North Coast Section
(NCS), North Section
and Sacramento –
San Juoquine. We are
working on the San Francisco,
Oakland, and Central
Sections.
Those who are Non-CIF
Schools, fall under
the
NCJLA (Northern California
Junior Lacrosse Association
organization.

nor may any CIF School

are many rules and regulations
that all CIF school programs
must comply with.
