Take your game to the next level
Lacrosse Equipment
New to lacrosse? Or looking to upgrade? Here are some recommendations for the gear you'll need!
NEEDS: Stick, Goggles, Mouthguard
Optional: All the rest!
Check out our Amazon Storefront for all your needs HERE!
Lacrosse Stick
All players need their own stick! We can provide one to borrow for a week or 2 until you get your own,
Things to know:
- GIRLS and boys sticks are different! Boys sticks have a larger pocket and are illegal for the girls game. Make sure you buy a girls/womens stick.
- All adult sticks are around the same size. Be sure NOT to buy a JR. stick if you are MS & up.
- Positional sticks: This doesn't matter that much, especially at lower levels. Defender labled sticks will tend to be wider, attack will tend to be more narrow for better shooting accuracy, midfield will be a blend. Some sticks are just for anyone if not labled.

Cleats
They are not mandatory, but we play on grass, so highly recommended.
Type: ANY cleats are fine! Lacrosse cleats come in low or high top. It's personal preference which you get. The high tops have better ankle support.
Soccer cleats are also just fine.
Lacrosse Goal
Again, if you have the space, a goal in the yard is great to practice shooting! There are different ones I would recommend based on the space you have and how portable you want it to be, as well as cost, so reach out to us for any recommendations on this!
Goggles
All players need their own goggles!
Cost/Quality: $40-$80 depending on brand/type. Usually the more expensive, the more comfortable they will be, but honestly any are fine!
**5th grade and up usually get adult, under get the youth.

Sidenotes: If you play for your HS team, you will get helmets during season and give them back at the end. School affiliated teams require helmets, but for club, most wear goggles. Wearing a helmet would be a personal choice if you wanted, and you can find those online as well!
Lacrosse Balls
All players should have balls to practice at home! Official girls lacrosse balls are yellow (for games), but you can get any to practice at home!
Mouth Guard
All players need a mouth guard! These not only protect your teeth but also against concussions.
Brand Recommendation/Cost:
SISU - they are about $25 and my personal favorite. The holes in it make it the most breathable out there while still being safe. They are also safe to mold over braces.
**5th grade and up usually get adult size, under get the youth.

Any other brand is fine as well. Even the cheap $3 ones. But they are usually bulky and more uncomfortable. I recommend getting a few cheap ones, mold them, and carry as backups in case you ever lose your main one.
Lacrosse Rebounder (Bounce Back)
If you have space in your yard, a rebounder is a great option! This allows players to practice throwing and catching skills right at home by themselves whenever they want!
