Gifts for Lacrosse Players: Season Stats, Team Keepsakes and Gear They Will Use

The Season, Lacrosse: Their Season Stats Set Big and Every Game of the Year, Personalized

Lacrosse players are a particular kind of busy. The spring season runs into summer club ball, then fall ball, and for some, winter box. Sticks get restrung, gloves wear through, and by August nobody remembers which tournament was which. A good gift for a lacrosse player either gets used at every practice or holds on to a season before the next one starts.

The Season, Lacrosse: their numbers set big

The Season, Lacrosse puts one player's season on one print: up to six season numbers set big, then every game with the date, opponent, result and their line, plus the team's record and finish. It fits high school, travel, club and college players. From $45.

The six numbers are yours to choose, so pick the ones that tell this player's story:

  • Attack and midfield: goals, assists, points, shots, ground balls, caused turnovers.
  • Faceoff specialists: faceoffs taken, faceoff wins, win percentage, ground balls.
  • Defense and long-stick midfielders: caused turnovers, ground balls, successful clears, and any goals or assists from pushing in transition.
  • Goalies: saves, save percentage, goals-against average, wins, clears.
  • Girls' lacrosse: draw controls belong on the list for anyone taking the draw, along with goals, assists, ground balls and caused turnovers.

Most teams keep stats in a team app or a shared spreadsheet, and the coach can usually send them at the end of the season. If the team didn't track caused turnovers or clears, don't estimate them; choose stats you can back up.

Order one for every player and the team ends up with a matching set, each with that player's own line.

Team pieces for the end of the season

For the whole roster, the Team Season Poster shows the team name, season and level, the record, every player's name and number, the results and the coaches in your team colors. It makes a tidy team-parent project: one order, a copy for every family and an extra for the coach. From $39.

Summer and fall lacrosse often come down to one tournament weekend. The Tournament Run shows every game from pool play to the championship as a climb, each opponent and score, the finish with a brass trophy, the record and the roster with your player highlighted. It is a good fit for the club team that won a bracket in July and scattered back to their high schools in the fall. From $45.

Player Card, for younger players

Kids in their first few years of lacrosse love seeing themselves on a trading card. The Player Card is a poster-size card with name, number, position, team, season, up to six stats and a highlight from the season, like a first goal or a big save in the fourth quarter. It is an easy birthday gift in the middle of the season. From $24.

Gear they'll use every day

Water bottles, laptops and helmets all collect stickers. Team Stickers are round kiss-cut vinyl stickers with their number or your own club logo, their name, and the school and sport. Before anything goes on a helmet, check with the coach or league, since some programs have rules about what can be added to one. From $11.

Lacrosse practice is a lot of running. The Team Water Bottle is 17 ounces of stainless steel with their number and name printed on both sides, so one side always faces out on a crowded sideline full of identical bottles. From $42. Teams ordering stickers or bottles for every player get 30% off, according to the listings.

Gift ideas by moment

  • Start of the spring season: a water bottle and a few team stickers.
  • First goal or first save: a Player Card with the date in the highlight line.
  • End of the season: The Season, Lacrosse for your player and a Team Season Poster for the team.
  • After a summer tournament: The Tournament Run with the whole roster.

What to gather

For a stats print, you'll need the player's name, number, position and team, the season, each game's date, opponent and score, their line for each game, and the six season totals. For team pieces, gather the roster with numbers, the coaches, the record and the finish.

Check names against the official roster before you order. Lacrosse teams are full of nicknames that sound right on the sideline and look odd in print, so ask the player which version they want.
