Boys Box Lacrosse: 

Box lacrosse is a fast paced, exciting game that is played indoors on turf typically at a hockey rink and improves players stick skills, enhances footwork, shot skills and passing in traffic. Nets are smaller and goalies are more heavily padded so the offense needs to be creative.
