- Transition players are generally middies or LSM’s in field lacrosse that play a 2-way role at both ends of the floor.
- Transition players generate transition offense out of the defensive end and when playing offense, they prevent offensive transition from their opponent by getting back on defense.
- Defenders: 4-5 players
- Traditionally defensemen or midfielders fills these spots.
- Real defenders love to grind on defense, and win ground balls while concentrating on playing both, on and off-ball defense. Working tirelessly on every substitution is also key to the position.
- 2 – Goalies (ANYONE can play goalie, regardless of field position!!)
- Have fun wearing all the big pads inside the 4×4!!
- All pads are provided for goalies with exception of helmet, gloves, cup and stick.
Cost
Cost per player:
- High School Elite – $995
- Midgets – $995
The uniform is an additional cost purchased directly through Lax.com at a price of $125. We decided to keep the uniform separate considering we are allowing families to use the uniform for more than one season. The plan was to use 2023-24 uniforms again this year, but we decided to use a new uniform this year that is reversible and plan to use this same uniform again in 2025-26.
