What equipment do I need for lacrosse?
Boys lacrosse stick, lacrosse helmet, mouth guard, arm pads, gloves and shoulder pads. Goaltenders are excluded from wearing shoulder pads but must wear helmet, mouth guard, gloves, chest and throat protection. Protective cups are recommended.
I am just a beginner and have never played. Can I still join?
Absolutely. The club accepts all skill levels and encourages players who have never played before. The coaches are committed to helping players learn the game from beginning stages. Come join us!
Are there tryouts for teams?
No, we are open to any player who has an interest in playing or learning the sport.
Who are the coaches?
No' Miss Lacrosse relies on volunteer coaches who are generally parents of the players. Each team is overseen by Coach Schroeder who has extensive knowledge of youth and college coaching experience. Each team will have a designated Head Coach who has primary responsibility for maintaining the team schedule, communicate with families, and manage their team. Each team will have a varying number of Assistant Coaches – and volunteers are always welcome – who assist with practices and game management. Please see our "Coaching Opportunities" tab on the website for more information on coaching.
What is the cost to play?
Lacrosse is an expensive sport. The cost very much depends on the amount of players. If you are just wanting to practice and learn the game, the cost would be $200. For those wanting a more competitive environment, we will be attending regional tournaments so cost would increase based on tournament fee (probably $300-400 total). If you need equipment, we have rentals available or available for purchase. A US Lacrosse membership ($30-35/year) is also required for each player. This includes $1 million insurance policy as well. The club also has equipment to rent for $25. Your dues are good for the summer and fall seasons.
Can I purchase team gear?
Yes, for new players, we recommend buying a beginner packet at either the gold or premium level from Universal Lacrosse.
