youth lacrosse

Children's field sport

Youth lacrosse is the sport of lacrosse as organized for children and teenagers, typically through recreational leagues, school programs, or travel teams.

Rules are often modified from the adult game—smaller fields, shorter periods, required protective equipment—to suit younger players' development and safety.

My son started youth lacrosse in third grade.
