Bob McMahon is the current head coach of the Colorado Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League.

Bob McMahon began his professional lacrosse coaching career as an assistant coach with the Detroit Turbos in 1992 and 1993.cite web|url=http://www.lacrosse-network.com/outsidersguide/news010515.htm|work=Outsider's Guide to the NLL|title=Sanderson resigns in Albany, hops to Montreal|date=May 15, 2001|accessdate=2007-09-26] In 1999, McMahon was hired as an assistant coach to his friend Terry Sanderson in Albany, and was promoted to head coach following the 2001 season, when Sanderson left Albany to become head coach of the expansion Montreal Express. In the two years with Sanderson as head coach, the Attack finished with 6-6 and 5-9 records, but in McMahon's first year as head coach, Albany improved to a league-best 14-2 record.. The Attack hosted the NLL Championship game, which they lost to the Toronto Rock, but McMahon was named 2002 NLL Coach of the Year (an award later renamed the "Les Bartley Award").cite web|url=http://www.lacrosse-network.com/outsidersguide/news020409b.htm|work=Outsider's Guide to the NLL|title=McMahon named Coach of the Year|date=April 9, 2002|accessdate=2007-09-26] McMahon was also selected as coach of the South team in the 2002 NLL All-Star Game.

After a disappointing 8-8 2003 season, the Albany Attack franchise moved to San Jose, and McMahon found himself out of work again. He was hired by his former assistant coach in Albany, Bob Hamley, as an assistant coach of the new Arizona Sting franchise. After four years as an assistant coach in Arizona, McMahon was announced as the new head coach of the Colorado Mammoth in September of 2007, after Gary Gait announced that he was stepping down.

In 2004, McMahon was chosen to be an assistant coach for Canada's Heritage Cup team, which defeated Team USA 17-8. [cite web|url=http://nll.com/article.php?id=1242|title=Heritage Cup this weekend|work=NLL.com|date=October 14, 2004|accessdate=2007-09-26]

McMahon has also coached in the Major Series Lacrosse league, leading the Brampton Excelsiors to the OLA Major title and a Mann Cup in 1998, and another OLA Major title in 1999.
