The 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 league executive board is comprised of volunteers throughout the state.
The THSLL hosts state championships each year for Divisions I and II. The hosting venue for the championship weekend is rotated from district to district every season. Each district crowns its champion through its district playoffs.
The DI district champions are combined with a wildcard team to play in the state championship final four; the DII district champions play in the state championship final four. The final four play a single elimination tournament during the championship weekend and crown a state champion.
Division I and II All-Star players are selected by the coaches and awards are given for All State, All-District, and Honorable Mention
