The NLC is committed to maintaining the safety of the players above all else. Contact is limited by rule at the youth level. If a parent or player has any concern about this, they should not hesitate to let us know. For 2002-03, lacrosse ranked sixth behind men’s soccer, football, wrestling, men’s ice hockey and women’s soccer in average game injury rate and injury severity, according to the NCAA Injury Surveillance System.
