FAQ

Box Lacrosse Tournament Questions

What is box lacrosse?

Box lacrosse is played indoors (or in an outdoor rink) on a smaller, enclosed surface with five runners and a goalie per side and a shot clock. Games are fast, physical and full of touches, which is why many coaches use box to build stick skills for the field season.

Are Bearpaw youth tournaments USBOXLA sanctioned?

Yes. Our youth box lacrosse tournaments are USBOXLA sanctioned, and every player and coach must hold a current USBOXLA membership for insurance and safety.

Do you run senior and masters box lacrosse tournaments?

Yes. The Nashville Invitational, Border Wars and the new Oak & Iron Invitational are built for men’s and women’s senior and masters teams.

When are schedules released?

Schedules and scores are posted in the Tourney Machine app, in most cases 5 days before the event starts.

Is there a hotel requirement?

Many Bearpaw events are Stay to Play. We partner with TRAVELING TEAMSยฎ to secure discounted room blocks at tournament-approved hotels close to the venue.

What happens if weather or travel affects an event?
