Age Verification

There is no separate fee for this benefit. Age verification is one of the benefits of a USA Lacrosse membership.

Beginning July 1, 2025 all players, regardless of age, will be required to submit proof of age in order to maintain active member status. This is a one-time process and will not need to be repeated on an annual basis.

Any of the following documents can be used:

• Birth certificate
• Driver’s license
• Passport and/or Visa
• State issued ID
• Military ID

A USA Lacrosse staff member will review the document, record the birthdate in our system to mark the individual's record as age-verified and then permanently delete the uploaded document from our system.

The age-verified processing is usually completed within two business days of submission. Please allow adequate time if you are participating in an event that requires age verification.

• All active player members who have not completed their age verification requirements by Dec 31, 2025 will have their membership moved to pending status. 
• All new player members have 15 days to complete their age verification requirement after their initial join date. If they have not completed the requirements within 15 days, their membership will be suspended. 
• Any active player member who has a renewal date before Dec. 31, 2025 has 15 days after their renewal date to complete their age verification requirements to avoid having their membership suspended. 
• Any active player member who has a renewal date after Dec. 31, 2025 must complete their age verification requirements no later than Dec. 31 to avoid having their membership suspended.

All active/current player members who have not completed their age verification requirements by Dec 31, 2025 will have their membership moved to pending status. Additionally, all new player memberships have 15 days to complete their age verification requirement after their initial join date. If they do not complete the requirements within 15 days, their membership will be suspended. Members in 'pending' or 'suspended' status are not able to register for events that require age verification.

You can contact your local USA Lacrosse regional manager and they'll help you get everything set up.
