What determines a player's eligibility to play lacrosse??

I know at the Husky invitational last weekend there was a player from one of the teams that was something like 34 years old. What determines things like the number of college seasons a player can play? Is there a limit on a time frame in which to use their eligibility? can you be in your 40's for example and still play??

According to the rules as they are written now, a player can play four years of college lacrosse (meaning MDIA, NCAA, or any other college team) but there is no clock on those four years. So someone could play a year of college lacrosse when they are 18 and then play three more years at the same school when they are 50.

Thanks Gregg! I'm in my mid 40's and was thinking about going back to college and I wanted to play lacrosse again. I know I not only still have what it takes but am a far better lacrosse player now than I was 20 years ago even. Okay, let the recruiting and bidding for my services begin. Oh, I'm an attackman by the way.

I got crazy hops and from 12 feet, my jumper is deadly. So, if anyone knows of an elementary school rec league looking for at 32 yr. old, slightly slow power forward, please PM me.
