box lacrosse

Box lacrosse is an indoor variation of traditional lacrosse, played inside a hockey rink with the ice removed or covered. It features six players per team (including a goalie) who use sticks to pass and shoot a rubber ball into the opponent’s goal. The game emphasizes fast-paced action, close checking, and quick movements, with players often in tight quarters. It blends elements of speed, skill, and physicality, making it a high-intensity sport popular in countries like Canada. The confined space results in continuous play and strategic offense and defense.
