About the Central Iowa Lacrosse Association
CILA was created in October 2008. Originally created via a personal blog, CILA came into existence as an attempt to locate and communicate with potential laxers in the Des Moines metro area. Other attempts were made to organize area laxers including the now defunct Group-O-Matic "Des Moines Lacrosse League" site. Once their founders connected with the head coach of the Waukee/Valley Lacrosse Club, lacrosse cemented itself in Central Iowa.
