@boarderlax1222 are a dumb, i play box Goalie and i get about 60 shots on me a game, by the end both arms are covered with bruises. if we didn't wear all the pads that we do no goalie would last a fucking game. i have my thumb fractured twice this season. im not saying field goalie dont get hurt there both hard to play but dont think the box goalies and pussies for wearing all the pads
@colecc7 i play field goalie as you can tell from the comment i have broken all of my fingers at least twice and have had two major concussions my legs dont bruise any more because i have had so many and i have permanet bruises in my legs and arms
@colecc7 What makes the shot any faster in box lacrosse than it does in field lacrosse? I take shot a whole lot and I BEAR it. The worst injusry I've ever gotten was almost a broken leg.
@MiloMcCoy differnt game. its literally impossible to compare. I played both. i still play box and i played field in high school, and its night and day. both positions are alot of fun, and they both hurt alot some times. it's not that the shats are faster, its that they're closer, and there is alot more of them. box and field are two differnt games
haha, loved playing box lax...... i played with no shin guards, thinking i was a little bad ass, but i do regret it. oo and i was better at box then this kid and played like 3 games. box doesnt compare to outdoor
I've played both and am ranked 3rd in British columbia in box and 5th in feild I have to say box is funner and harder because you get at least 5times more shots in box and at my age (junior) the nets are bigger, there fore making box harder. I'm 6'2 210 so net size don't effect me in field that much...
@LaxGoaliefly he reason they wear pads in box lax is 1 cause the net is a lot smaller (only 4x4) and their are a lot more shots. Therefore, the box lacrosse style of goalie play is all about getting your body in front of the ball and not getting your stick there instead. When goalies take shots to the skin in field lax it hurts them but that's only once every game at most. In box lax they are taking up to 30 shots a game to their bodyThey wouldn't be able to survive a whole game without the pads
@aDerks96 the field lax goalie has to get their body in front of shots too, we are supposed to do anything we can to save the ball. You said we only take one shot a game at most, yet i come home after every game with bruises all over my thighs and arms and two weeks ago, a shot broke my thumb. field lax goalies put up with way more pain then box lax goalies and it is harder to be a field lax goalie. so munch a weiner.
@aDerks96 im a feild lax goalie and what you say is not true about feild lax goalies we have to get our body in front of the ball ASWELL as our stick so if we miss with the stick our bodies are there to stop it and after every practice and game i play i come home with bruises and sometimes bleeding (under the right circumstances) and once i had to go to the ER due to a shattered elbow so I think that being a box lax GOALIE not regular player is the easiest goalie position in sports
Ehhh i like field more. im not dissing box but it reminds me too much of hockey. Dont get me wrong i love hockey but its just hockey with lax sticks and no ice skates
Okay, this kid is giving a bad example of what being a boxla goalie is. youtube search "boxla goalie" posted by 63fad this guy is much better. The reason the pads are so big is becuase theres 100% more shots on net in box than field, the shots are 100% faster in box than field and box goalies DO have a major part in plays. Please people who are insulting boxla don't try to flame it without playing it. If you played it you would actually understand why people love it.
don't wanna start a flame war but box lacrosse goalie is hard. I play both box and field goalie. Field is harder but for box you have to have the right angles or else you'll get scored on.
It teaches you to follow a play well because it tends to move a lot faster up the floor and in the offensive zone than field does. Box players tend to have better stick skills so you learn to judge fakes well. Also, a good grasp of angles carries over to goaltending in all sports.
omg i play field goalie and why the hell do they wear so many pads??!!!??! and i was gonna play box lax but the goal is like 5 inches so its really no benifit at all to me
all you idiots who think box goalie is an easy thing to do, obviously have never played or they just have their heads up their asses. Give it a shot and try stopping shots coming at 100 mph bouncing, uprising, and coming down. Then worry about fakes, backhands and onetimers. I have played for years in goal, won many provincials and mvp's along the way, and it was NEVER EASY!
I agree. I play feield goalie and thats hard too but box is just as hard. I played box for a couple of years except the league around here is gay because goalies don't wear all those pads. So i used my body but had a cup, field chest protector, and soccer shin gaurds on. It was shitty
ouch i just started playing box lacrosse as a golie and it hurts with the chest protecter on mines a little out of date though but damn that must have been a painfull season
don't forget about the intense heat of the gym adding all of that heavy gear it sure as hell isn't easy I started for my first time this year and I have no regrets it's an awsome sport
question for all you box goalies. ive been playing goalie in field lacrosse for 9 years and used to play goalie in ice hockey. how would i do as a box goalie?
if people say that being a goalie is easy its not... Try being a goalie whos shoulders just go over the cross-bar and is 2nd year Bamtam... EVERY ONE IS SO TALL!!!!!!!!!!!!
@USMCof2010 "real lacrosse" you talking about field right? that shit aint even skill, too many illegal hits that are legal in box, and in box the games are a way faster pace
and i know that sounds like a dick thing to say, but if you get close to the net in field, and you dont score, you got some serious issues, in box you have maybe six inches to shoot at.
its actually like a hybrid of hockey and basket ball, the offences are run just like basket ball and the nets and goales are like hockey, i like both to, but i much prefer box
you have six feet of net to shoot at, if your close enough and dont score you have issues.
even my american feild coach told a kid on our team after he missed the net while in close on a power play "if you don score on an oppurtunity that good again, im going to break your stick and throw your helmet into a sewer"
dont give a shit how good the goalie is, if you close in feild, 99.9% of the time it's a goal
does anyone know a good online site or store in edmonton that has lacrosse stuff?? I cant find any stores with that stuff (either than united cycle) thats a good price. PLZ help me!
WTF! Lacrosse goalies go down all the time, its beter not to cause then the top is wide oppen. I only go down to either cover the ball, or to stop a roling shot, i trust my legs & body to be in front of the ball instead of just my stick.
im not saying that this guy isnt a good goalie all im saying is he has some good "D" and he watches and spots the ball veary well. I do think that some of the saves in this vid are week but he did do a good job.
They use a smaller net/bigger pads because we don't have 6ft long poles so you don't have to go near the guy. learn to cross check!
