Typical Game Day Roster

Up to 16-18 players

- Offensive Lefties: 3-4 players
  - Offensive players are highly skilled, offensive minded players.
  - Generally attackmen or goal scoring midfielders.
Transition players: 2-3 players
- 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.
