what is sixes?

Sixes Format

Among the major differences players will find in Lacrosse Sixes are:

Games are played in 4, 8-minute quarters
Goalies initiate play after goals are scored; draws / faceoffs occur only at the start of each quarter
Field size is ~70×36 meters
Flow of the game emphasizes tempo, with fewer stoppages in play
Everyone plays both sides of the field (defense/offensive); substitutions are made on the fly
Rosters are comprised of 12 players, which leads to more playing time and more touches on the ball
