Box-Out Lacrosse is offering both a camp and tournament this July at Yale University in New Haven, Conn.

boxoutThe Box-Out Lacrosse Camp, scheduled for July 1-2, is designed to introduce field players to box lacrosse in an outdoor setting. The benefits of box lacrosse have been widely documented and the game is starting to catch on in the states. Box-Out also offers Lacrosse Camp Lite on July 3, an abridged version of the two-day curriculum.

Box Out also offers a tournament at Yale, scheduled for July 5 and 6, is open to all ages and both genders. Players compete in their division and are guaranteed four games.

Box Out is a one-of-a-kind box lacrosse experience where you get more touches, more lacrosse, more action, and more fun than you’ve had in any tournament you’ve ever attended.

You play real box lacrosse, outdoors, in the fresh air.

Many of the best goal scorers in the NCAA field game honed their craft playing box lacrosse. In fact, most of the top 10 goal scorers in NCAA history hail from Canada where the box game is played. What are the benefits:

  • Immeasurably more touches in the box game meaning more opportunity to get better.
  • The goals are much smaller than field goals, which makes scoring difficult which further increases skill.
  • All players play all the time. There is no “other end” of the field. It’s faster, and more challenging than field lacrosse.
  • Confined spaces force players to work hard at their stick protection and greatly augments skill development in a comparatively short period of time.
  • More action equals WAY more fun.

Box-Out Lacrosse started as a tournament company but quickly realized that teaching the game of box lacrosse is a priority too. Box-Out Lacrosse Camp and Box-Out Lacrosse Camp Lite are restricted to 180 players. It will accept no more than 30 players in each box,and will restrict each division to 30 players. If interest dictates, it may open a second group in one age division. The two day session includes specialized box lacrosse drills and instruction and many small game scenarios as well as actual box lacrosse games.

Box-Out Lacrosse Camp Lite: July 3rd – $125

What is Box-Out Lacrosse Camp Lite? Box-Out Lacrosse Camp Lite is a hyperspeed, abridged version of our two day curriculum. You will be doing the same drills, but you will be getting three total sessions as opposed to six. You may, by all means, sign up for both camps meaning you would get three days total of lacrosse. The curriculum, while somewhat redundant, would be well worth repeating. Tuition includes lunch BUT NOT DINNER as you will have ample time to leave the facility for dinner. We are in negotiations with an on site caterer as well. More information on that to follow.
