General Q & A
Common questions
What do I need?
Intro – sneakers and dress for the weather. Bring a friend and get them involved.
Girls grades 1–8 – sneakers/cleats, lax goggles/eyewear, stick and a mouthpiece. Enjoy lax — it's the only time girls will be cheaper than the boys. A lax bag makes life easier.
Boys grades 1–8 – helmet, shoulder pads, elbow pads, lacrosse gloves, sneakers/cleats, mouthpiece; protective cup highly recommended. A lax bag makes life easier.
Where do I get this stuff?
By car – Dick's, Blue Line West in Harrison, Sports Attic in Yorktown (sells used equipment) and Lax Unlimited in Bronxville.
Online – Amazon, Lacrosse Monkey, Lacrosse Unlimited, Lacrosse Fanatic.
How can I be ready for the season?
A ball, a stick and a wall is the key to getting better. I grew up going to the tunnels at Memorial/Myrtle Park in Larchmont. (If you miss the ball it doesn't go far.)
What else should I keep in my bag?
Extra mouthpieces — they disappear like socks. Buy a bunch of cheap ones on Amazon.
Are there summer camps for lacrosse?
Day camps – Westchester Predators, Team 91 Tristate, R2 (girls), Compass Lacrosse (girls), Nike Lacrosse Camp at Pace in Pleasantville.
Sleep away – We have had success with X10. There is one in the Adirondacks for boys and girls and around the country.
Are there club teams?
Yes. Many in the area — tryouts are in June and July for next fall and winter. We will share them when we get info.
