The NJJLL has issued over 1200 IDs so far and most coaches who applied before 3/15/23 have received them. 

Because we have some coaches who have not yet received their IDs and because we have new coaches still signing up, the NJJLL has decided to make Digital IDs available as a backup option.

This also allows us to get a coach back on the sideline very quickly if they lose their ID during the season rather than wait for a vendor to print and mail a replacement.

These Digital IDs are an APP on the phone, and it will quickly allow the officials to see the coach has met the NJJLL requirements to coach this season.

This Digital ID will ONLY be available to coaches who have already indicated to us that they have not yet received their IDs or coaches who lose their IDs during the season (there may be a fee associated with lost IDs).

All referees have been advised of this new Digital ID and this app will work even if the lacrosse field does not have cell service or WIFI available.

The Digital IDs are NOT replacing the physical IDs this season.

At this time we are not making the digital ID available to all coaches, only on an as needed basis.

Those coaches who are eligible will receive instructions in a separate email shortly.

NJJLL Coaches, 

For the 2023 season all coaches for grades 4th through 8th must be USA Lacrosse Level 1 Certified and obtain a NJJLL Coaches ID to be on the sideline during games. This includes any high school age coaches (Junior Coach) you want to be on the sideline during games.

IF YOUR MEMBERSHIP CARD DOES NOT READ: "MEN'S GAME LEVEL 1 COACH CERTIFICATION" YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A NJJLL COACHES ID AND CANNOT BE ON THE SIDELINE DURING ANY NJJLL GAME.

For 2022, for any team in grades 4th through 8th all coaches must be USA Lacrosse Level 1 Men's Game Certified and possess a NJJLL Coaches ID.

A total of four coaches are permitted to be in the team area during games. This includes all Junior Coaches (high school aged coaches) who also must be USA Lacrosse Certified Men's Game Level 1 Certified as a "Junior Coach".

The only exception to this rule is that if a team only has one certified coach available, a second adult is permitted in the sideline area for the sole purpose of supervising the players in the bench area. The non-certified adult may not actively coach the players on the field or interact with game officials.

NOTE: Junior coaches may not be a head coach for any game.
