Intermountain Lacrosse Presents Quick 6
Lacrosse is already considered the fastest game on two feet, but Sixes takes it to a whole new speed. World Lacrosse Sixes (familiarly Sixes) was created in pursuit of lacrosse Olympic inclusion. World Lacrosse formally introduced the new game format in the spring of 2021, and it quickly gained popularity.
Inclusion and Growth
The new discipline is aimed to continue the growth of lacrosse worldwide. Sixes appeals to the next generation with the tempo, speed, and scoring. Requiring smaller fields and fewer players, the format removes barriers to access. Additionally, more gender-neutral rules decrease the confusion surrounding the traditional field games and in turn, bolster interest on both sides fostering growth.
Sixes Format
Sixes has been likened to basketball with sticks. It’s virtually non-stop play. Instead of a draw or faceoff after goals, goalies restart play. Draws are only taken at the start of each quarter. Quarters are 8 minutes with very few stoppages of play. As the name indicates it’s 6 v 6 (5 field players, 1 goalie) and everyone plays both offense and defense, eliminating the boys’ long poles. The size of the cage remains the same but count on considerably more scoring. However, shoot wide and most likely players will be running to the other side of the field, there’s no shot backup in this game. Whichever team touches it last loses possession for all boundary balls. World Lacrosse continues to refine the rules, but most consider the format far less complicated than the traditional field styles. To take a comprehensive look at the rules check out the World Lacrosse Resources.

Excited for the strides made to reestablish lacrosse as an Olympic sport, Intermountain Lacrosse will host its first Sixes-style tournament. Dubbed Quick 6, the tournament will be played over Labor Day Weekend featuring a wide range of age groups from 12 years old to adult. So, mark your calendars, round up your friends, and register your team now to join us!
