Women

Historically, box lacrosse has been exclusively a men's sport. Women who played the sport of lacrosse typically played the more genteel women's field lacrosse version.^[60] Recently, Ontario, Alberta, Minneapolis, Nova Scotia and British Columbia have established girls' and women's box lacrosse leagues.^[61][62][63]
During the 2003 NLL season, goaltender Ginny Capicchioni appeared in two preseason and one regular season games to become the only woman to make an appearance in the NLL.^[41][64]
