Board Conflict of Interest

Approved by Board of Directors at Board meeting on October 5, 2009

Texas High School Lacrosse League (THSLL) is the governing body and membership association for boys’ lacrosse teams at the high school level in Texas. The high school level is defined as grades nine through twelve. The THSLL board is comprised of volunteers throughout the state.

The District Coordinators for each district should work together as a team for the common good of the league and to relay district issues / topics to the THSLL Board. Generally the Class A Coordinator takes the lead and sets the tone / voice for the district since the goal of each Class B/C/D program is to matriculate at some point in the future.

Coaches / Administrators are responsible / accountable to the District Coordinator with regards to THSLL issues.

The State Administrator position is accountable to the THSLL board, reporting to the THSLL Commissioner. The State Administrator communicates with the Member programs and District Coordinators facilitating the administrative duties for the THSLL.

Board Advisors:

  • Past Commissioner (ideally immediate past commissioner)
  • Coach Advocate (current THSLL coach if possible)
  • Private School Advocate (SPC, TAPS, etc.)
  • U.S. Lacrosse Liaison (e.g. U.S. Lacrosse Area Chair)
  • Lacrosse official

At no time may the number of THSLL board members who are paid and/or who are voting members of THSLL member programs make up more than 49% of the THSLL board.

If at all possible, a THSLL board member will not have a son currently playing lacrosse for a member school. If so, the board member may be asked to abstain from voting items relating to the respective district/class.

Whether a conflict exists for Board Members, Advisors, Contractors or Employees (e.g. State Administrator), other than the Commissioner, shall be determined by the Commissioner. Whether a conflict exists for the Commissioner, shall be determined by a majority of the THSLL board excluding the Commissioner’s vote.
