The Great Lakes Lacrosse League's mission to provide a competitive league for teams in the Midwest who want to play in a well-organized league outside of NCAA restrictions and without the expense of being a 'virtual varsity'. Playing more and traveling less is our formula for a great lacrosse season. Our league is comprised about 40 teams from Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, and Michigan. Most games are with teams in close proximity. This format minimizes travel costs and unnecessary long road trips. Players in the GLLL love the sport but have demanding academic and other personal obligations. We provide balanced experience for student athletes.
