  • Youth/High School indoor Leagues
  • Youth & High School Travel Teams
  • Drop In Games

Box lacrosse is a different style of lax that is played indoors.  There are many benefits to playing box lacrosse in the off season.  The game is a little faster as it is played on a smaller field.  It helps improve stick skills and decision making.  All players use short sticks so it helps improve position defense.  The nets are smaller with bigger goalie pads which makes it harder to score.  This helps improve shooting and finishing and creates more transition play.  Box lax requires constant substitutions for more playtime and reps!  There are so many benefits but the most important is that it is fun!!!

American field players would really help themselves if they were exposed to a steady stream of box experience. Box lacrosse is an extremely valuable background for a young player, we need to incorporate more of the indoor skills in to the field game. It is almost a requirement to have a top player with indoor experience on your roster right now.

-Dom Starsia Virginia Head Coach

I believe that box lacrosse gives young people many more opportunities to excel in our game. If I had my choice, I would have every player under the age of twelve play box lacrosse exclusively or at least a majority of the time. The number of touches of the ball and the ability to develop better stick skills in a game of box lacrosse, far surpasses what happens to young people on a 110 x 60 yard field. Learning how to pass and catch in traffic, understanding how to shoot, and developing a sense of physicality are all positive traits developed by the box game.

-Bill Tierney Denver Head Coach
