2021 Boys and Girls Introduction to Box.
Learn the basics of Box Lacrosse with clinic-style skill development drills and games.
Box Lacrosse is Canadian-style indoor lacrosse tha offers more reps, a faster pace and an emphasis on team passing and execution within the tight confines of an indoor field. Shooting, passing and ground ball skills will rapidly develop and improve, however it is a difficult environment for a brand new player to learn and become comfortable with lacrosse fundamentals. We do not allow first-time players in Box.
WHO - Boys and Girls born in years 2007 through 2012
- For safety, and to create the best instructional programming, only players with a minimum of one season of competitive field or box lacrosse experience should register for the Intro to Box Program. No first-time players.
- Girls and boys will play in separate sessions, but girls box lacrosse is played with the same equipment and rules as the boys’--similar to the way girls hockey is identical to boys hockey.
- Each age group will be limited to 20 players. See below for age division.

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS - The tight spaces and physicality of box lacrosse calls for some box-specific gear beyond what’s required for field lacrosse. PLEASE CLICK HERE for a rundown of the gear you need to play Box Lacrosse.
- Boys players should have all the gear they need with the exception of Bicep and Rib pads. Boys can buy box-specific gear in our HSLL Box Store, or find at online retailers.
- Girls will need to start from scratch with gear as box uses a boy’s stick and requires full boy’s protective gear. Girls can rent a full box package in our HSLL Box Store.
- Basketball-style shoes--cleats are not allowed at Reno Sports Dome.
- Goalies should bring a helmet, cup, mouth guard and lacrosse stick. The League will provide essential box goalie equipment.
SAFETY
- All participants must read, accept and abide by the Reno Sportsdome updated waiver and rules. Sign that Waiver here.
- HSLL and Reno Sportsdome require all spectators to wear face coverings while inside.
