Under 16 Social Media Restrictions

From today, new Australian laws mean that children under 16 will no longer be permitted to hold Facebook or Instagram accounts.

What remains unchanged is Lacrosse Australia’s commitment to responsibly sharing, celebrating and supporting our junior athletes. All content featuring young people will continue to be published only with full parental consent and in strict accordance with our Child Safety Policy. This has always been our standard practice.

We encourage parents and guardians to ensure you are following our official channels from your own accounts to stay informed about trial dates, team announcements, programs and tournament information. Please do not rely on your young athlete to pass along key updates — experience tells us that important details can easily be missed.

Your junior athletes will continue to be represented and celebrated across our platforms. We simply ask that you stay connected with us so you don’t miss any opportunities or announcements.
