Lacrosse Game Format Explained

A PLL field lacrosse game runs four quarters of 15 minutes each, with 10 players per side: 3 attackers, 3 midfielders, 3 defenders, and 1 goaltender. The offense works a 52 second shot clock. NLL box lacrosse games run three periods of 20 minutes each, with 6 players per side: 5 runners and 1 goaltender, working a 30 second shot clock. Goals count as one point in both formats, scored by sending the ball into the opposing net. Regulation ties move to sudden death overtime, where the first side to score wins the match.

FAQ

What’s the difference between moneyline and point spread bets in lacrosse?

Moneyline bets pick the outright winner of a fixture, with no margin attached. Point spread bets require the favourite to win by more than the posted handicap, or the underdog to lose by less than that margin.

Does Stake offer live streaming for NLL and PLL fixtures?

Live odds and in-play markets cover lacrosse fixtures rather than match streaming. Live scores and match clocks update throughout each NLL and PLL game.

Can I bet on NCAA lacrosse through Stake?

NCAA Division I men’s and women’s lacrosse fixtures appear during the college season, including the NCAA Championship bracket in field lacrosse.

What happens to a lacrosse bet if the match goes to overtime?

Moneyline and point spread bets settle on the final result, including any sudden death overtime period. Totals and quarter markets that specify regulation time settle at the end of the fourth quarter or third period, depending on the league.

Are player props available for lacrosse betting?

Player prop markets for goals, assists, and points span NLL and PLL fixtures, alongside faceoff and shot totals for individual players.
