Equipment & Resources

Girls Field Lacrosse Stick (Mandatory): All legal sticks and molded heads are listed on the USA Lacrosse Website.

Girls use a different stick than boys, with the most significant difference being the absence of a "pocket," which makes passing, catching, and cradling more challenging. We recommend purchasing a full stick and then cutting the stick to a size suitable for your child’s height. 

Goggles (Mandatory): More information about women's protective eyewear on the USA Lacrosse Website.

All field players must properly wear eye protection that meets the ASTM standard for women's lacrosse (F3077). All Eyewear must be listed on the SEI website to be legal for play and all eyewear must bear the SEI mark for certification. 

Mouthpiece (Mandatory): 

All players must properly wear a professionally manufactured intra-oral mouthpiece that fully covers the teeth. The mouthpiece shall be of any readily visible color other than clear or white and must not have graphics of white teeth. It shall include occlusal (protecting and separating the biting surfaces) and labial (protecting the teeth and supporting structures) portions and shall cover the posterior teeth with adequate thickness. There may be no protruding tabs for field players. 

Cleats (Strongly Recommend): 

When playing outside on grass or turf.

Goalkeeper's Crosse (Mandatory): 

The overall length of the crosse shall be 35 1/2 inches minimum to 52 inches maximum. The endcap is included when measuring the overall length of the crosse. The pocket of the crosse may be strung with six (6) or seven (7) longitudinal leather or synthetic thongs and cross-lacing or can be mesh. The depth of the pocket may be unlimited except that the ball must move freely within all parts of the head and the pocket, both laterally and along its full length. The goalkeeper's crosse may have more than two shooting strings. Flat laces or nylon cords may be used as shooting strings. 

Goalkeeper's Equipment (Mandatory): 

The goalkeeper must wear a helmet with a face mask and properly secured chinstrap, a separate throat protector, padded gloves, a mouthpiece, a chest protector, a pelvic protector and padding on the shins and thighs. The protective helmet, designed for lacrosse, must meet the NOCSAE test standard. It is recommended that the goalkeeper wear padding on the arms and shoulders.
