Box lacrosse is a fast-paced indoor version of the sport of lacrosse. It is played in a smaller, enclosed area, typically in an ice hockey rink that has been converted for the game. Teams consist of six players each, including a goalie, and the objective is to score goals by shooting a small rubber ball into the opponent's net.
The game emphasizes quick passes, agile movements, and strategic plays. Players use a long-handled stick called a crosse to handle the ball and defend against opponents. Box lacrosse is popular in Canada and has gained recognition in other countries, contributing to the growth of the sport globally.
