PLAYER EQUIPMENT
Lacrosse equipment is similar to hockey. If you are just starting out and you play hockey, then you already have almost everything you need. Check out the image below to see what you may need:
GOALIE EQUIPMENT
For players wanting to play goalie, your club may supply you with your protective gear. Speak to your coach at a pre-season camp about this.
BOX LACROSSE-PLAYING SURFACE
Box lacrosse is played on indoor hockey rinks with some different markings. These include a larger crease area and transition zones to name a couple.
This keeps the game moving and why it is called the fastest game on two feet.
