Lacrosse Equipment – Goals, Nets, Training Aids & Gear for Every Level of Play

Lacrosse equipment covers the complete range of field infrastructure, training tools, and practice aids that programs, coaches, and individual players need to run practices that develop skills at the pace and quality the sport demands — from the regulation portable goal with the netting specification and dimensional accuracy that competitive play requires through the training nets, rebounders, and protective screens that individual skill development needs to the barrier systems, crease markers, and field accessories that turn any open field into a functional lacrosse practice facility. Lacrosse is one of the fastest-growing team sports in the United States at every age level — youth recreation leagues, middle school programs, high school varsity programs, club and travel teams, and collegiate programs all require the same fundamental equipment categories with progressively demanding specifications as the competitive level increases. The lacrosse equipment category at Pro Athletic Supply covers every product type a complete program needs — portable and permanent goals, training nets and skill development tools, protective barrier nets, crease and arc markers, box lacrosse systems, and the equipment that makes the wall-less, portable lacrosse facility a reality for the growing program that practices on shared fields without dedicated permanent infrastructure. Pro Athletic Supply carries lacrosse equipment from Bownet and JayPro Sports — two of the most trusted authorized brands in the lacrosse infrastructure category — for youth programs, middle and high school teams, club and travel organizations, and facilities that want quality equipment built for the speed and intensity the sport demands.

✔ Portable Goals That Set Up in Minutes and Transport Between Fields — The most critical practical specification for most lacrosse programs is portability — the ability to set up regulation goals at the practice field, transport them to the game site, and break them down for storage without a dedicated installation crew or permanent infrastructure. Purpose-built portable lacrosse goals deploy and break down in minutes through tool-free assembly systems and pack for transport in carrying bags that fit in a van or SUV alongside the rest of the program's equipment.

✔ EAS™ Energy Absorption Netting — The Technology That Extends Goal Netting Life Under High-Velocity Shots — Bownet's proprietary EAS™ (Energy Absorption System™) technology diffuses ball energy throughout the netting and poles on impact rather than concentrating it at the specific contact point — extending netting service life significantly under the high-velocity shots that competitive lacrosse creates and producing the taut, consistent ball response that training drills require from a net that maintains its shape and tension across a full season of daily practice.

✔ Regulation Dimensions Across Every Competitive Level — Youth Through NCAA Standard — Lacrosse goal dimensions are standardized across competitive levels — 6'x6' for standard field lacrosse, regulation box lacrosse dimensions for indoor play. Every goal in Pro Athletic Supply's lacrosse lineup meets the dimensional specifications that official play and competitive practice at the appropriate level requires — the correct target size for developing the spatial awareness, accuracy, and shooting technique that game-speed training at regulation dimensions produces.

✔ Training Nets, Barrier Systems & Field Accessories — The Complete Practice Infrastructure — A lacrosse goal is the centerpiece, but a complete practice facility requires the training nets that give players individual skill targets, the barrier nets that protect spectators and adjacent areas from errant shots, the crease and arc markers that accurately represent the field geometry that offensive and defensive positioning requires, and the team equipment organization that makes the equipment room and travel logistics efficient.

✔ Youth Through Professional — The Same Standards Across Every Competitive Level — Quality lacrosse equipment serves every competitive level in the sport — the youth player learning their first wall-ball reps, the middle school program running its first team practices, the high school varsity program competing for conference championships, and the club travel team practicing four days a week for spring tournament season. The same goal construction, netting quality, and field accessory standards apply across every level — the specification that separates equipment built for lacrosse from general sporting goods adapted to it.

Lacrosse Goals & Nets – Portable Regulation Goals for Practice and Competition

Portable lacrosse goals are the primary infrastructure item that defines whether a program's practice environment matches the game environment the players compete in — the correct 6'x6' regulation opening, the netting depth and tension that produces realistic ball response, and the structural stability that competitive practice at high shot velocities requires from a goal that isn't driven into the ground with permanent anchors. Portable goals in the Bownet lacrosse lineup use the EAS™ energy absorption system in the UV-treated Raschel knotless netting for extended service life under the continuous high-impact shot training that competitive practice creates. The BOW™ Pole and rigid frame system provides the structural stability that keeps the goal in position under repeated direct shot impact without the creeping displacement that lightweight alternatives experience during practice. Full-size portable goals include a carrying bag for transport between the equipment room, the practice field, and the game site — the infrastructure that the program without a dedicated permanent field can deploy and break down as efficiently as any fixed installation.

Best for:

• High school and club lacrosse programs whose practice sites are shared athletic fields without permanent goal infrastructure — the portable goals that deploy at each practice and break down for storage and transport without permanent installation hardware
• Youth and middle school programs building their first equipment inventory — the regulation-dimension portable goal that develops spatial awareness and accuracy at the correct target size from the first practice the program runs
• Athletic directors and program administrators purchasing goals for new lacrosse programs — the complete goal package that gives a new program the practice infrastructure it needs before the first season begins

Box Lacrosse Goals & Indoor Equipment – Rigid Steel Systems for Indoor Play

Box lacrosse goals are the indoor lacrosse infrastructure — the rigid steel frame goal designed for gymnasium floors and indoor arena surfaces where the outdoor portable goal's terrain stakes and flexible ground frame aren't the correct installation format. Box lacrosse uses the same fundamental game structure as field lacrosse in an enclosed indoor arena format — creating the higher-scoring, faster-paced indoor version of the sport that youth programs, indoor training facilities, and winter practice environments use to continue lacrosse development year-round when outdoor field access is unavailable. Bownet's box lacrosse goal uses a rigid steel frame with non-marking rubber feet that protect gymnasium floors from the frame contact damage that metal feet without rubber caps create across a full indoor season of daily practice use. The nylon net cover and ground frame complete the regulation indoor goal system, with BOW™ Poles providing the structural framework that holds position under the repeated direct shot impact indoor lacrosse's concentrated shooting environment creates.

Best for:

• Youth and high school lacrosse programs that practice indoors during the winter off-season and want a regulation indoor goal that protects the gymnasium floor while providing the same 6'x6' regulation target the players compete against outdoors
• Indoor lacrosse facilities and training academies that host box lacrosse leagues, clinics, and year-round training programs where the rigid steel indoor goal serves as the permanent practice facility infrastructure
• Programs in cold-weather regions whose outdoor practice season is limited and whose indoor training volume requires quality indoor goal infrastructure — the box lacrosse goal that keeps the program training at regulation dimensions year-round regardless of outdoor season length

Training Nets & Wall-Ball Systems – Individual Skill Development for Lacrosse Players

Training nets and wall-ball systems are the individual skill development infrastructure that gives lacrosse players the repetition volume outside of team practice that wall-ball — the traditional solo lacrosse development practice against a wall — provides, without requiring a wall, a rebounder, or a second player. Portable lacrosse training nets create an individual target for shooting accuracy, cradling and catching, and the repetitive ball handling drills that develop stick skills at the pace that team practice alone can't produce across a 45-minute practice session shared with 20 other players. The Bownet training net lineup's EAS™ netting and BOW™ Frame architecture provides the same energy absorption and structural durability in the training net format as in the full-size goal — the netting that doesn't sag, tear, or deform after the first week of daily solo shooting reps. Individual wall-ball practice with a training net specifically develops the catching reflexes and off-hand skills that game play requires.

Best for:

• Individual lacrosse players who want to extend their daily skill development beyond team practice through solo wall-ball reps, shooting accuracy drills, and catching and cradling work at a portable training net they can use at home, at the park, or at the facility between team sessions
• Coaches who want to run simultaneous individual skill stations during team practice — multiple training nets at different court positions creating the multi-station drill format that develops individual skills alongside team concepts in the same practice session
• Youth and middle school programs building individual skill development habits early — the training net at home that creates the daily wall-ball practice discipline that elite lacrosse players develop before their high school careers begin

Barrier Nets, Creases & Field Accessories – Complete Practice Field Infrastructure

Barrier nets, crease markers, and field accessories complete the lacrosse practice facility infrastructure beyond the goal — the protective systems and field geometry markers that make a shared athletic field into a functional lacrosse practice space. Barrier nets and halo systems protect spectators, adjacent courts, and players waiting at the sideline from errant shots and passes that leave the practice area — the safety infrastructure that programs operating on shared school athletic complexes require before lacrosse practice can proceed safely alongside other activities. Crease circles and arc markers accurately represent the field geometry that offensive attack positioning and defensive crease coverage requires — developing the spatial positioning habits that competitive play demands by training in an environment that replicates the field's actual zone geometry rather than an unmarked open space. Bownet's crease, arc, and halo and barrier systems serve both field and box lacrosse applications — the complete field setup infrastructure from a single authorized brand.

Best for:

• Programs operating on shared athletic fields with adjacent activity where barrier nets protect spectators, other athletes, and property from lacrosse shots and passes that leave the practice area — the safety infrastructure that facility access for shared field lacrosse practice requires
• Coaches who want accurate crease and arc markers on the practice field — developing the positioning habits and spatial awareness that competitive lacrosse's strict crease and restraining box rules require from players who train where they can see the correct geometry rather than imagining it on an unmarked field
• School athletic programs building out the complete lacrosse practice facility on shared fields — goals, barrier nets, creases, arcs, and ball collection systems as the complete field setup package for the program that practices where multiple sports share the same space

Who This Is For

• Youth lacrosse program directors and coaches who want regulation-dimension portable goals and individual training nets that develop the stick skills and shooting accuracy that competitive youth play requires from the program's first practice
• Middle and high school athletic directors and coaches who need the complete lacrosse practice infrastructure — goals, training nets, barrier systems, crease markers, and box lacrosse indoor options — from authorized suppliers whose products meet the quality and durability standards that daily team practice demands
• Club and travel lacrosse program administrators who transport equipment between practice sites and tournament venues and want portable goals, training nets, and field accessories that pack efficiently for van and trailer transport without requiring permanent installation infrastructure at any practice location
• Individual lacrosse players and families who want training nets and individual skill development tools for the daily wall-ball and shooting practice that serious lacrosse development requires outside of team sessions
• Schools and facilities building new lacrosse programs — the complete first-year equipment package that gives a new program the practice infrastructure to develop players from their first team practice through their first competitive season

How to Choose the Right Lacrosse Equipment

Portable goal vs. permanent installation by field access — Portable goals for programs that practice on shared fields without dedicated permanent infrastructure — the tool-free assembly and carrying bag transport that makes the shared field practice facility practical. Permanent or semi-permanent installation goals for programs with dedicated lacrosse-specific fields where the goal stays in position across the full practice season and dismantles only for off-season storage. Most programs at the high school and below level benefit from portable goals even when a dedicated field exists — the portability that allows goal positioning to change with drill design.

Full-size goal vs. box lacrosse goal by primary playing format — Full-size 6'x6' portable field goals for programs whose primary game format is outdoor field lacrosse. Box lacrosse indoor goals for programs whose winter training or primary competitive format is indoor box lacrosse. Programs that operate year-round across both formats benefit from both goal types — the portable outdoor goal for the practice season and the indoor box goal for the winter development season.

EAS™ netting by shot velocity and training frequency — EAS™ energy absorption netting for programs whose training frequency and athlete shot velocity create the sustained impact load that standard netting handles poorly across a full season. Standard netting for youth programs and lower-velocity training contexts where the sustained high-impact load that EAS™ technology specifically addresses isn't the primary service life driver. At the high school varsity and club travel level where athletes shoot at full speed daily, the energy absorption technology pays back in service life across the season.

Training net quantity by program size and practice structure — One training net per player pair for the maximum individual repetition volume in a multi-station practice structure. One training net per 4 to 6 players for the rotation-based station format that team practices with larger groups use. Solo players training at home need one net — the individual training infrastructure that the solo wall-ball practice session requires.

Barrier net coverage by facility layout and adjacent activity — Barrier nets and halo systems sized for the specific field layout's exposure — the sideline that borders a parking lot, the end line that borders an adjacent practice field, and the areas where errant shots and passes create safety risks for people and property. Confirm the specific practice site's layout and adjacency risks before sizing the barrier net coverage — the goal is eliminating the injury risk that the program's facility creates rather than applying maximum coverage regardless of the specific site's actual exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What lacrosse equipment does Pro Athletic Supply carry? A: Pro Athletic Supply carries lacrosse equipment from Bownet and JayPro Sports. The lineup covers portable field lacrosse goals with EAS™ energy absorption netting and BOW™ Pole structural systems, box lacrosse indoor goals with rigid steel frames and non-marking rubber feet for gymnasium floors, individual lacrosse training nets for solo skill development, barrier nets and halo systems for field safety, crease and arc markers for field geometry, and carrying bags for equipment transport. The complete lineup serves youth programs through competitive high school and club programs with the practice infrastructure that lacrosse skill and team development requires.

Q: What size are standard lacrosse goals? A: Standard field lacrosse goals are 6 feet wide by 6 feet tall — the regulation dimension used from youth competitive play through NCAA collegiate competition. Box lacrosse uses a narrower goal opening per that format's specific rules. Youth recreational programs sometimes use smaller goals for the youngest age groups — confirm the specific program's age group and league rules for the correct goal dimension before purchasing. All full-size lacrosse goals in Pro Athletic Supply's lineup meet the 6'x6' regulation field lacrosse dimension.

Q: Can lacrosse goals be used indoors? A: Standard portable field lacrosse goals can be used indoors on gymnasium floors with the appropriate floor protection — rubber foot caps or floor protection pads that prevent frame contact damage to gymnasium floors. Box lacrosse goals are specifically designed for indoor use with non-marking rubber feet that protect the floor surface. For programs that practice indoors regularly, the box lacrosse goal's rigid steel frame and indoor-specific design provides better gymnasium floor protection and stability than a standard outdoor portable goal adapted to indoor use.

Q: How often does lacrosse goal netting need to be replaced? A: Netting service life depends on shot velocity, training frequency, and netting material quality. At the youth recreational level with lower shot velocities and less frequent practice, quality netting lasts multiple seasons. At the high school varsity and club travel level where athletes shoot at maximum velocity daily, netting typically requires replacement at least annually and sometimes mid-season depending on the program's daily practice load. EAS™ technology in Bownet's netting extends service life by distributing impact energy across the netting rather than concentrating it at the contact point — the technology choice that delays replacement for the high-velocity, high-frequency training context.

Q: What is the difference between a training net and a regulation lacrosse goal? A: A regulation lacrosse goal is the 6'x6' standard-dimension goal used for competitive practice and game play — the correct target size for developing the shooting accuracy and spatial awareness that competition requires. A training net is a smaller-format individual skill development target that provides a portable, solo-use shooting and catching surface for the wall-ball and repetition drills that individual skill development requires outside of team practice. Training nets are used for individual skill work; regulation goals are used for team practice, game simulation, and competitive play. Most programs need both — goals for team practice and training nets for the individual development that daily personal practice produces.

Q: How do I transport lacrosse goals to away games and tournament sites? A: Portable lacrosse goals are specifically designed for transport — disassembling into pole and frame components that fit in the carrying bag included with each goal. The carrying bag format allows goals to transport in a van, SUV, or trailer alongside the rest of the program's equipment without a dedicated goal trailer or specialized vehicle. At tournament sites where goals are provided by the facility, programs transport training nets and individual practice accessories for warm-up and skill work rather than full goals. Confirm the tournament's equipment provision before determining whether transporting program-owned goals or relying on provided equipment is the correct logistics approach for each event.

Lacrosse equipment is the practice infrastructure that determines whether a program's players develop at the pace that competitive lacrosse demands — the regulation goals that build shooting accuracy at the correct dimensions, the training nets that create the individual repetition volume that team practice alone can't provide, the barrier systems that make shared field practice safe and accessible, and the crease and field markers that develop the positioning habits the game requires from players who train where the geometry is visible. Pro Athletic Supply carries lacrosse equipment from Bownet and JayPro Sports for youth programs, middle and high school teams, club and travel organizations, and lacrosse facilities who want practice infrastructure built for the speed and intensity of the sport.
