Q: What does gear cost?
A: Gear prices vary as there are different options. Gear will last for multiple seasons too. A new beginning set can be purchased for $160 and up. New gear can be purchased at Lacrosse Wolf in Bellevue and Dick's Sporting Goods in Issaquah. There are many online retailers for lacrosse equipment. Used equipment is another option and stores Like Play It Again Sports in Lynnwood are a place to start. Contact us with any questions and we will gladly help you. Note: High School players have to have some specific equipment due to league rules. The High School directors can help in that area.
