About Us

Snowdogs Box is going into its third year as a program. Each year we have had great growth in competition level and numbers. Our first year, we started with one local High School team. Last year, we had three local teams at the Bantam (U14) and High School age groups, with Bantam and High School travel groups!

In our third year, we are looking to make available 3rd grade to 12th grade participation from camps, clinics, evaluations, leagues, and tournaments. On the boys side and girls side. As we grow box lacrosse, the overall growth of lacrosse in Minnesota becomes greater!

Box lacrosse helps our overall lacrosse game in many ways. Smaller areas and tighter quarters calls for quicker thinking, movement, stick skills being able to protect your stick in less room, and use of teammates. It is not only good for your offensive skills, but it helps defensively by having to communicate faster and slide more quickly, communicating through picks. Shot clocks, along with quicker transitions, help with time management and decision making.

This year we will be rolling out opportunities on the girls side! As girls box grows, we want to help and continue propelling the box and girls games forward!

Opportunities for 3-12 grades:

Novice: 3/4

Peewee: 5/6

Bantam: 7/8

HS B: 9/10

HS A: 11/12
