Equipment
| Pads are a very important part of lacrosse. If you did not wear pads you would come home from a lacrosse game battered and bruised. Every lacrosse player needs to wear the following pads: Shoulder pads, arm pads, gloves, helmet. Rib pads and a cup is optional but I recommend you wear them. | |

The shaft is a vital piece of equipment to have. Shafts can be made of anything from titanium to kryptolite (Type of metal used specifically for lacrosse sticks). Some people like light sticks, but others like strong powerful sticks. Lacrosse sticks come in three different lengths: Attack/Midfield, Defense, and goalie. |
| The head is extremely important for the lacrosse player. When you buy a head you usually look for a certain head for your position. All heads are pretty much the same size except for goalie heads which are extra large. You may look for certain features such as pinched pocket or quick release. |
