What Gear You Need To Run With The Pack

​

Required Equipment to Play Lacrosse

​

For players just getting started in lacrosse, we know that finding the right equipment can be a bit confusing, and perhaps, even a little intimidating. It’s important to know that there are key differences in the required protective equipment between the boys’ and girls’ game, as well as between field players and goalies. 

​

Minimal equipment is required in girls’ and women’s lacrosse due to its non-contact nature. A stick, mouthguard and protective eyewear are the only required items for most players. Headgear and close fitting gloves are optional for field players.

 

Goalies are also required to wear a helmet with face mask, a separate throat protector, padded gloves and a chest protector.

 

Boys field players are required to use a helmet, stick, gloves, shoulder pads, arm pads, a mouthguard and a protective cup. Rib pads are optional.

 

Goalies are also required to wear a helmet with face mask, a separate throat protector, padded gloves and a chest protector.

**NOTE**Effective January 1, 2022, chest protector/pads for boys’ field players must be designed for lacrosse and meet NOCSAE standard ND200.
