Box Lacrosse vs Field Lacrosse, what do you prefer?

rile

I want to know if box lacrosse truly is "A Canadian Sport" and if Americans are really just "field-freaks". But if that's the case how could the NLL support 6 American teams? I want to know which one is more popular where by finding out what your preferred version of the sport is. Be sure to mention whether you are Canadian or American when responding with your preferred version. Thank you to everyone who responds!!

Box lacrosse is not just a, "Canadian sport". It's played in many countries including USA. I am an American and I play both Field and box lacrosse. I don't have a preference because I love all forms of lacrosse.

I must say that i love playing in the box, and if i have someone who understands what i am doing on the crease i like the field.

I'm an american who grew up with field and occasionally would play in a box format. Even now I play "indoor lacrosse" which is not true box, but similar for all practical purposes. I have to say as an adult, my preferred form of lacrosse to both watch and play is box. I think why it's considered a "Canadian sport" is that's the format where the youth focus is in most of Canada. In most of the US, it's field.

Loved playing Box Lacrosse as a kid, but love watching and coaching the field game as an adult.

I'm an american and perfer field but we don't have much box where I live so I don't think it is a so much that I prefer it or that it is prefered by others I think that it is just more available and played more in canada.

I like both games but would prefer to play field over box and box is a bit more interesting to watch as there is more action.

Howdy, Stranger!
