The Basics - Equipment

What Equipment/Gear is Required to Play Lacrosse for 2025?

-Helmet
-Chest pad
-Elbow pads
-Gloves
-Stick
-Cup
-Mouthguard
-Non-metal cleats
-A personal water bottle are required

ALL PLAYERS chest pads must meet 2022 NOCSAE standards as of Jan. 1, 2022

It is too expensive for me to purchase all this equipment. Is there a cheaper way?

New players will receive a new stick from the RPK fund. We have an equipment loaner program that helps lessen the cost of equipment for those that need it. While we strive to keep a decent stock of equipment on hand, we can not guarantee that we will have the sizes you need or all the equipment you need.  

 

Is there financial assistance available?

We are a volunteer, non-profit organization that receives no financial assistance from the city or other entities. We try to keep fees as affordable as we can, so financial aid is limited. That said, we’re happy to work with you to arrange payment plans, find loaner gear, and find assistance from organizations like USA Lacrosse, https://everykidsports.org/ and the Ryan P Kautz organization.
