  • Box lacrosse, also known as indoor lacrosse, is an indoor version of lacrosse played in Canada and becoming very popular in the US. Box lacrosse is played between two teams of six players, in a hockey rink with a turf surface. Due to the presence of hockey boards, there are fewer balls out of play, fewer stoppages in play, and more rebounds.

  • Rep (short for Representative) lacrosse teams are the competitive squads that represent the Peterborough Minor Lacrosse Association in games and tournaments against other clubs. These teams compete within the Ontario Lacrosse Association and are ranked each year from “A” through “E” based on skill and performance. Rep lacrosse is the top level of competitive box lacrosse offered within our club.

    1. The speed is way faster than anything you would see outdoors.  It makes playing outside seem like going in slow motion.

    2. Playing in closer spaces means your stick skills have to be tighter and quicker. Your stick handling improves because there is no room for error, quite literally.

    3. Shots come hard and fast. Goalies see more shots in a shorter period of time. Their hands and reaction time become much quicker.
