A lacrosse goal is a key component of the game, designed to be 6 feet wide and 6 feet tall. It consists of a metal frame with a net attached to catch the ball when a player scores. The goal is positioned at each end of the field, allowing teams to aim for their opponent's goal to earn points. The goal is typically placed on a field that measures 110 yards long and 60 yards wide. Players use a lacrosse stick to throw a small rubber ball into the goal. Scoring occurs when the ball completely crosses the goal line, making it an essential part of the game.
