Box Lacrosse (Indoor)

Box lacrosse is the indoor version of lacrosse. The game originated here in Canada, where it is the most popular version of the game. There are six players on the floor for each team (5 players and 1 goalie) and is traditionally played in an ice hockey rink once the ice has been removed.

Lacrosse is a fast physical game encompassing specific skills, agility, team work, physical conditioning, discipline, trust and respect. Contact is introduced in U9 Rep, but lacrosse is one of the safest sports with the fewest amount of youth injuries, ranking safer than hockey, soccer, football and basketball, despite the high pace and physical nature of the game.

✅ Box lacrosse is recommended for all new players (boys and girls) due to its fast-paced nature and the high number of touches with the ball.

️ Box lacrosse begins in April. Local League wraps up in June, while Rep teams continue through the second week of August, competing for the provincial championships at the Ontario Lacrosse Festival.
