Lacrosse Sixes (World Lacrosse)
Verdict
Field: 70 m × 36 m (~76 × 39 yards) — substantially smaller than traditional men's lacrosse (110 × 60 m) or women's (100 × 55 m); Goal: 1.83 m × 1.83 m (6 ft × 6 ft) — same as field lacrosse; Crease: 2.75 m radius circle around each goal
Why people argue about this
People often assume that the 70m x 36m field size is based on a standard soccer pitch conversion, leading them to argue about how it translates into yards or why they don't see such dimensions in other sports fields. The confusion arises because Lacrosse Sixes specifically uses these exact measurements for optimal gameplay and strategy, not simply converting from another sport's norms.
