Anyone heard of this ? the girls lacrosse is new. $75,000 a year.


WHY???? No professional league to aspire to and college is mostly a glorified walk on for the women's game.. IMG is for the sports that pay professionals.

I coach another sport and I have had athletes offered scholarships from IMG, not full scholarships. But it did bring the cost down significantly. I may venture a guess (only a guess) that IMG may be offering some scholarships if they are looking to build a new program with quality players, and attract more quality. There is a lot of wealth in lacrosse, and maybe they are looking to spread some seed money, build a solid high school team and even parlay that into a club team as well and build their lacrosse brand/enrollment in that manner.
