Programs
Boys Travel Programs
During the spring season, boys 12U, 14U, JV, and Varsity travel teams will play in the Northern Plains Lacrosse League. The NPLL has teams in Bismarck, Grand Forks, Fargo, Aberdeen, Watertown, Brookings, Rapid City, and Sioux Falls. Our league follows a jamboree format where we play several league games on a given weekend with multiple programs attending to limit travel requirements. The travel season will begin around April 1 and end in early June.
During the fall season, boys teams will play 1-2 tournaments with the season typically running from Labor Day until late October.

Stick Recommendation
Sioux Falls Lacrosse recommends the String King Complete series of lacrosse sticks for new players. String King sells its complete stick in age-appropriate sizes with a properly-strung pocket, which is essential to learning good technique and lacrosse habits. The String King Complete series offers sticks for both boys and girls lacrosse.
Girls Equipment
Girl's lacrosse is the same sport but an entirely different game from boy's lacrosse. The field dimensions are different, the balls are different, the rules are different, and the equipment is different from the boy's game. The only thing that is the same is the goal. Below is a description of the equipment needed for girl's lacrosse.
- Stick
- Goggles
