• Growing fast across Northern Virginia

Key Benefits

• More ball touches, shots, and ground balls every session
• Fast-paced, non-stop action with fewer stoppages
• Increased scoring and creative offensive plays
• Excellent lacrosse-specific conditioning and endurance

Frequently Asked Questions

• Do I have to attend every session? No — this is a “come when you can” program. It’s designed to be light, fun, and enjoyable.
• Will we get a uniform? Yes. Uniforms (courtesy of Beltway Lacrosse) should be ready by Week 2.
• Can I volunteer? Absolutely! We welcome all volunteers to help with lines, timekeeping, shot clock, and general support.
• Is there active coaching? Coaching is minimal — mostly minor corrections and assistance. 6U will have some instructional time before play.
• How are teams formed? Sticks are thrown in each week and coaches draw teams randomly. This gives everyone a chance to play with different teammates.
• Will we use goalies? Yes — goalies play when available. If none are present, we’ll use Hectors to cover the goal.
• How does Sixes differ from spring field lacrosse? Think shorter-field, basketball-style lacrosse. No offsides, fast-paced shifts, constant action, and lots of play.

Shootout for Soldiers is a 24-hour lacrosse event benefiting American veterans where participants raise money through registration fees, optional donations, and by playing Lacrosse. The event is fun. It’s not a tournament or about recruiting. The event is all about supporting those who serve our country. 

The event is comprised of 24, 1-hour games in a row.  Brigade fields teams at the 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U & 'Coach' age levels.  Every team will play in at least one, 1-hour game. 

• Schedule: Saturday August 1 - Sunday August 2, 2026
• Location: Gainesville High School

Coaches will be reaching out late-spring to field teams at each age group. Parents are encouraged to express interest too! Everyone is welcome to play.
