The Positions

In 2008, DS Girls Youth Lacrosse adopted the "new" positions in Girls/Womens lacrosse.
The positions on the field are now as follows:

Grades 7/8 and 5/6 play 12v12​

• 1 square of Attack
• 3 Midfielders
• 1 square of Defense
• Goalie

<--  Left                                    Right  -->

The Draw
Starts each half; starts play after each goal (unless there is a 4 goal differential where free position is awarded)
Up to 4 players can stand around the center circle until the opposing centers take the draw; then players can rush in for the ball.
