If you are looking for information on how to join a free practice, what you need to play lacrosse, or how to become a member of the Wageningen Warriors, than you are on the right page! If you want to know what kind of activities we have planned for September, click here.
Join an introduction practice!
Do you want to try lacrosse for yourself, or see what our association is like? Then you can join one or more of our practices! At the beginning of the year, there are two weeks in which we have introduction practices that all students in Wageningen can join. They take place at the D field of the Bongerd (grass field). You don't have to sign up for them.
The dates for our introduction practices are:
If you missed these practices or if you want to try lacrosse at another time, you can still join one of our other practices. Please send an email if you would like to join a practice outside of the first two weeks of the year!
When you join an introduction practice, bring the following:
You can borrow a stick and other required lacrosse gear from the association during these practices.
After practice, we often go to the Sportspub in the Bongerd and we have a drink together, so please feel free to join!
Join the LAX weeks
After the introduction practices, there will be two more weeks that you can join before signing up as a member: the LAX weeks! They take place in week 3 and 4 of the academic year (the 19th, 21st, 26th and 28th of September) and the practice schedule is the same as during the introduction practices.
During the LAX weeks you will improve your basic skills of Lacrosse, understand the game and learn the rules. You will also get to know your new team. The costs of the LAX Weeks are €15,-. This includes a Newcomers Tournament (with a BBQ), the Huizenborrel and a drink at the Bongerd.
To join the LAX weeks, sign up here.

Materials for men's lacrosse
This variant of lacrosse is more physical, so you will wear gear to protect yourself against injuries. To get started, you are required to wear at least the following:
Although it is not mandatory, most people also wear extra protection like:
All this gear can initially be borrowed from the association. You can also rent gear afterwards.
Materials for women's lacrosse
Women’s lacrosse is less physical than men’s lacrosse and requires more finesse. You will therefore only need the following to play:
The association has goggles and lacrosse sticks you can borrow for a while, but most people prefer to buy their own stick and goggles after a few months of playing. There is a document to help you out with choosing a stick and goggles. You can also buy this via the association.
