The National Lacrosse League's Board of Governors are considering the use of instant replay to assist officials during games. The move to begin an exploration into the use of instant replay was given unanimous approval by the Board of Governors during the recent league meetings in Boston.

There are three situations in which instant replay could be used to assist officials during games:
-Determination of the ball crossing the goal line
-Determination of the ball crossing the plane of the goal prior to the end of a quarter
-Determination of a crease violation prior to the ball crossing the goal line, by the shooter or one of his teammates. A crease violation occurs when the shooter (or teammate) enters the goal crease prior to the ball crossing the goal line.

The league is also exploring the method by which a play would be designated for review. In one scenario, a decision to review a disputed goal would be initiated by a team's head coach in the form of a "challenge", similar to the system used by the National Football League.
