2018 Phantoms Equipment Needs

 Co-ed PK/K/1/2 Program

The Phantom Lacrosse Club will provide the team with jerseys. All players on the co-ed team will need a lacrosse stick, helmet (hockey helmets are acceptable), gloves, shoulder pads, lacrosse arm pads, and cleats. As with the helmets, hockey shoulder pads and gloves are acceptable at this level. Mouth guards and protective cups are optional but recommended.  Girls are required to have a lacrosse stick (girls style pocket recommended) and protective eye wear/goggles.

Boys 3-4, 5-6, and 7-8 Teams

The Phantom Lacrosse Club will be providing shorts and game jersey to all players.  We will not be providing helmets. Players must provide their own stick (boys stick), helmet, lacrosse gloves, shoulder pads, lacrosse arm pads, and cleats. Protective cups are optional but strongly recommended.

Girls PK/K/1/2, 3-6, and 7-8 Teams

The Phantom Lacrosse Club provides shorts and game jerseys to all players.  Players must provide their eye protection, mouth guard, sticks (girls stick) and cleats.

Equipment Assistance

The program will retain a small inventory of helmets for use by players if there is economic need or a player is new and not sure of their future with the game.  We want everyone to have the opportunity to play this sport.  Please email the Phantoms Steering Committee if you need assistance or have questions about equipment needs.
