Seattle's (unofficial) inaugural experimental lacrockey experience! Let's get the community together to give this a try and see where it takes us!

Who: This co-ed event is open to youth and adult players who know how to play both hockey and lacrosse, and own their own gear for both sports.

Gear: Wear full hockey gear. LAX or hockey helmet with cage manadatory. Bring your lacrosse stick. No d-poles. Balls and pinneys will be provided. 

Goalies should be in full goalie pads, skates, and can elect to tend goal with either a box lacrosse goalie stick or hockey goalie stick (whichever they are more comfortable with).

Teams: Players will be divided into teams of 18 players + 1 LAX goalie. On-ice will be 5 players at a time + goalie. Players will swap out on roughly 2-min shifts but can sub on the fly like hockey or after a whistle. 

Game Format: Games will be played full ice. Depending on the number of players who register, games could run as either: 

  • Two 30-min games consisting of two 15-min quarters. 
  • One 60-min game consisting of four 15-min quarters.
    • 2-min break between quarters; 5-min break between halves. 

Cost: $15 for players; Free for goalies. Seeking minimum 2 youth and 2 adult goalies. Spectators are free! 

Volunteer: Want to help out? We could use a couple people to coach, ref and run the clock. Send an email to "general inquries" to connect with the organizers.    

 

Box Lacrosse Rules

Rules: Games will be played with slightly modified box lacrosse rules. Modifications will be covered on-site before we break into games.
