As per the CLA Rulebook, Rule 8 (a), effective January 1,
2012 for all non-minor lacrosse divisions (except Senior A and C), the box
lacrosse net must be 4' 6" wide by 4' high (all interior dimensions). This
affects both Intermediate A and B leagues.
As per CLA Technical Bulletin 09-03, effective January
1, 2013 (date extension issued by CLA December 2, 2011) all box lacrosse
nets will need to be purchased from
Canadian Lacrosse Association (CLA) approved manufacturers who have met the
net specification standards as approved by CLA Board of Directors.
At the BCLA Annual General Meeting, it was further
confirmed that these nets no longer will be tethered to the floor surface,
either by goalpost extensions, pegs or other insertions into the floor.

As per CLA Technical Bulletin 11-06, effective
January 1, 2012 for players aged 16 and under, all helmets must be CSA-approved
for ice hockey, facemasks CSA-approved for lacrosse or CSA-approved for hockey
with exceptions, or helmet and facemask unit approved by NOCSAE for lacrosse.
Players aged 17 years and over are not required to use a CSA approved facemask
for lacrosse until January 1, 2013. Until then, helmet and facemask
configurations that were legal as per CLA policy and used in the 2011 season may
continue to be used in the 2012 season.
