I think all young kids should play box first.
– Coach John Desko, Syracuse University Men's Lacrosse

Stick Skills, Lacrosse IQ and Decision Making, More Touches, Off-Ball Movement, Faster Play, Everybody Plays Defense, Shooting Accuracy 4x4 goals instead of 6x6.

6X NCAA Championship Coach Bill Tierney, University of Denver:

“If I had my choice, I would have every player under the age of 12 play box lacrosse exclusively or at least a majority of the time.  The number of touches of the ball and the ability to develop better stick skills in a game of box lacrosse far surpasses what happens on a field.  Learning how to pass and catch in traffic, understanding how to shoot, and developing a sense of physicality are all positive traits developed by the box game.”

MLL/NLL All-Star Paul Rabil:

“Being a part of the finesse and physicality of box lacrosse has been a great experience for me. I feel that I have learned and improved as an overall lacrosse player. Learning to adapt in tight space while reading defenders and offensive players has been the biggest improvement in my game.”

4x NCAA Championship Coach Dom Starsia, University of Virginia:

"When you watch Canadian kids score, when you see their skill level around the cage, you wonder to yourself, 'Jeez, are we teaching kids [in the U.S.] the wrong things?"

MLL/NLL All-Star Casey Powell:

“I knew that if I wanted to be one of the best players in the world, I would have to dedicate myself to both the indoor and the outdoor game. Playing indoor lacrosse has been a great thing for my career.”
