Soft Lacrosse
It all starts with a scoop.
Soft lacrosse is a non-contact introductory program focused on fun. Soft Lacrosse allows children turning 3 or 4 in the current playing year to develop a love for the game in a safe and fun environment as players are introduced to basic lacrosse skills through small group instruction and skill-building games.

All helmets must be CSA approved for ice hockey or NOCSAE approved. The helmet must have a chin strap which must be properly secured on both sides and cannot be altered from the manufactured form. Face Mask must be CSA approved for ice hockey or NOCSAE approved and must be approved for the helmet model that it is mounted on.

We recommend cutting the shaft to suit the size of the player. This is typically somewhere between 24" to 26" from the bottom of the head.
-
Running shoes should be specifically designed for indoor use to ensure good traction and support on gym floors or indoor playing surfaces.
-
Lacrosse gloves are encouraged but sometimes small lacrosse gloves are hard to find. In the event you can't find lacrosse gloves small enough, hockey gloves or gloves from other sports may be worn as an alternative.
