U15 games are played using a “limited contact within 9 feet of the ball” version of field lacrosse.

1. The 15U age division uses a modified field and a “Sevens” format as opposed to the full game of ten players. The “sevens” game promotes more involvement and skill development.
2. Only seven players - two attacks, two midfielders, two defensemen, and one goaltender are on the field at one time.
3. The “sevens” format decreases specialization of positions so that players have the opportunity to learn all aspects of the game.
4. Game is played on an 80-yard X 40-yard field.
5. The object of the game is to score more goals than the opposing team through strategy, ball control, and team play.
6. The offensive skills required to perform this task involve passing, catching, carrying the ball under control (cradling), and shooting. Defensive skills involve basic positioning, footwork and stick checking (poke checking).
