NLL UnBOXed™ is more than an introduction to lacrosse. It is an initiative designed to spark a lifelong connection to the game. The National Lacrosse League is committed to making the sport accessible to young students at the stage when many first discover their passion for sports: gym class.
Rooted in community, NLL UnBOXed™ brings together kids from all backgrounds and creates opportunities that make lacrosse easy to try, fun to learn, and possible to continue. Regardless of experience or skill level, every young athlete deserves the chance to pick up a stick and feel part of something meaningful.
Through equipment support, simple curriculum, and connections to local programs, the NLL is helping build stronger lacrosse communities while creating a clear pathway for the next generation of players.
