There are similarities between boys and girls lacrosse. In both games, players use a lacrosse a stick with a net at the end to catch and throw a hard rubber ball and score by throwing the ball into the opponent's goal. Both games emphasize speed, stick skills, and agility. But the rules, strategies, equipment, and even field markings are significantly different for boys and girls. The boys game is a contact sport, so boys wear protective pads, gloves, and helmets. The girls game focuses on finesse, with stick-to-stick contact only for older players, so girls require less protective equipment.

Boys need a helmet, shoulder and elbow pads, gloves, athletic cup, mouth guard, stick, and cleats (football, soccer, or lacrosse). Girls need safety goggles, mouth guard, cleats (soccer or lacrosse) and a stick. Goalie equipment will be provided for youth boys, youth girls, and high school girls teams. High school boys goalies need a neck protector, chest pad and a goalie stick, as well as standard player equipment (no shoulder or elbow pads).

New equipment is available from a variety of local and online vendors including:

• Lacrosse NW Training and Retail Facility
• Dick's Sporting Goods

The Tualatin Lacrosse Club began with a high school boys junior varsity team in 2006 (through Tualatin High School) and added a boys varsity team in 2007. A high school girls JV team was established in 2008 as well as youth teams (boys & girls) for grades 1 through 8. In 2009, a high school girls Varsity team joined our club.

Lacrosse is usually played on a standard-sized soccer or football field for teams in grade 5 and up. Grade 3/4 teams play on a smaller field but with full-size goals. Fiddle Stix teams play on a much smaller field with small-size goals.

Youth teams are separated by gender and then by grade. Typically, two grades are combined to create teams: grades 1/2, 3 /4, 5/6, and 7/8.

High school teams are separated by gender and then by ability and experience into junior varsity and varsity teams.

Teams are set up based on the interest level from players. If there arn't enough players for a full team at any age level, we will try to offer developmental clinics for those kids, or we may combine some grade levels.

Girls are allowed to play on boys teams, following boys rules for contact, if they, their parents, and the coach agree. To protect players' safety, boys may not play on girls teams.

No, high school players are not responsible for the school's pay-to-play fee. The only fee is the lacrosse club registration fee.
