Lacrosse Balls

NOCSAE (National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment) and SEI (Safety Equipment Institute) certifications ensure the ball meets strict safety and performance standards required by high school, college, and pro leagues. Always look for this certification when buying game-use balls.

Game balls are regulation weight and hardness, meeting NOCSAE and SEI standards. Practice balls may be softer (like indoor or low-bounce balls) to reduce risk during drills or to use safely in indoor facilities or with youth players.

White and yellow are most commonly accepted in official gameplay. Colored balls (like pink, green, or orange) are often used for visibility during practice or in team-specific customizations but may not be legal in all game settings. Always confirm with your league or coach.

Over time, lacrosse balls lose their grip and become slick — this is called greasing. Usage frequency, weather, and storage conditions affect how quickly this happens. To extend lifespan, store balls in a cool, dry area and avoid prolonged sun exposure.

Yes. Indoor or “soft” lacrosse balls are made from foam or sponge rubber. They're lighter, quieter, and safer for indoor walls and gym floors. They're ideal for wall ball, beginners, and training in tight spaces.

Low bounce balls are primarily used for goalie training, indoor practice, or skill drills. They're engineered to minimize rebounding, making them safer and easier to control in confined practice spaces.

Most bulk packs include 12, 60, or 120 balls, divided into sets of dozens. Coaches, leagues, and training facilities often order by the case to get better pricing and ensure consistent supply.

Some assortments allow for mixed colors (like Patriot Blend or Halloween Blend). If you want a custom mix, contact us at sales@lacrosseballstore.com — we’re happy to help.

While many dog owners use lacrosse balls for fetch, NOCSAE-certified balls are not made for pets and can wear down teeth or pose choking hazards. For safety, choose dog-specific versions sold by pet brands.

Returns are accepted on unused balls in original packaging within 30 days, with a valid RA#. Buyer covers return shipping. A restocking fee may apply.
