Last week, World Lacrosse announced the men’s and women’s schedules for the 2024 World Box Championships to be played in Utica, N.Y. later this year.

Box Lacrosse, also known as Indoor Lacrosse, is played inside the confines of a multi-sport rink, with a distinct set of rules that differ from the field game. The playing surface is enclosed by boards, and each team has six players on the floor – five runners and one goaltender.

In short, it’s a version of lacrosse that features tight spaces, a fast pace, and quick decision making by players.
