This includes a helmet, gloves and arm pads that will need to be returned at the end of the season - approximately a $200 value for new gear. 

Families are responsible for a stick and shoulder pad (new safety protocols for shoulder pads have rendered our old inventory obsolete) - this can be acquired for about $120.

USA Lacrosse Chest Protector FAQ

1. Make sure the helmet is NOCSAE approved. The National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment conducts rigorous tests and sets standards for safe athletic equipment, including lacrosse helmets.
2. Always review the specific helmet manufacturer’s recommendations for proper helmet fitting either on the manufacturer’s web site or in the store.
3. Helmets are measured in inches. Check manufacturers’ charts to show the proper size helmet for your child’s head.
4. Padding of the helmet shall give firm and uniform pressure about the head. The skin of the forehead should move as the helmet is moved from left to right and from front to back.
5. Be sure there is a four-point chin-strap attached to the helmet. The chin-strap should be tightened so that there is no slack.
6. Properly fitted helmets must take into account the hairstyle of your child; if your child has a great deal of thick hair and then receives a haircut, the helmet must then be refitted.
7. Proper helmet fit should never cause headaches.
8. The facemask should attach cleanly to the helmet and should be replaced if it is bent.
