The RILAX Mission: The RILAX mission is to grow, unify, and promote men’s and women’s lacrosse in Rhode
Island with emphasis in the development of youth lacrosse. RILAX will operate
by the coordinated efforts of the sport’s constituencies working together in
a respectful and professional manner. RILAX will strive to improve the level of
sportsmanship, individual skills, and team skills of all involved in the youth
and high school levels. RILAX will strive to establish mutually beneficial relationships
with the state’s high school and college teams while offering post-collegiate
playing opportunities where practical. RILAX will serve as a source
of information and guidance to the lacrosse community in Rhode Island. RILAX is
the local affiliate of USLacrosse, the national governing body of Lacrosse. |
