Box Lacrosse comes to Arizona Sports Complex!
Arizona Box Lacrosse (AZBOXLA) and the Arizona Sports Complex (ASC) are working together to bring the sport of box lacrosse indoors with clinics, training and working toward offering full leagues starting September 19!
The sport of lacrosse is a combination of basketball, soccer and hockey. Anyone can play lacrosse--the big or the small. The game requires and rewards coordination and agility, not brawn. Quickness and speed are two highly prized qualities in lacrosse.
There are a number of similarities between soccer and lacrosse, and that’s why it’s a popular crossover sport for soccer players. Because of the similar layout of the field, young soccer players can improve their team play and vision when they play lacrosse. It’s also great for maintaining fitness and developing stamina offseason.
Boxla (as it is also known) is sometimes referred to as the fastest sport on two feet. The game is played by teams of six players; rebounds and checks off the boards make the game exciting to watch, and a 30-second shot clock, which requires a team to either shoot in half a minute or relinquish the ball to their opponent, leads to a high-scoring game. Box lacrosse is usually played on a cement surface, wood, sport court or turf.
AZBOXLA runs box lacrosse training, clinics, leagues, and travel clubs. Established in 2005, AZBOXLA is a sanctioned program with the United States Box Lacrosse Association (USBOXLA)
Box Lacrosse Clinics
Coaches from AZBOXLA will teach the game of box lacrosse at ASC with fast skills, drills and scrimmages for eight weeks in preparation for upcoming leagues.
No experience or equipment needed! Lacrosse sticks will be provided or you can bring your own. These clinics will be “soft lacrosse” where no protective equipment is needed. All the participants will learn the proper fundaments of lacrosse in a safe and fun environment and be prepared to play competitively when leagues begin
