Illinois's longest-running and most successful box lacrosse program, and one of the only programs in the country with its own regulation box floor
Our home floor
East Ave is one of the only programs in the country with its own regulation-sized box lacrosse floor. The Naperville Lacrosse Arena is our indoor home: a fully boarded, regulation box floor and a netted turf training field under one roof at 460 Industrial Drive in Naperville.
That means Beast Ave players practice and scrimmage on real boards all winter long: tight, fast, physical box lacrosse instead of a taped-off field-house turf.
2026-2027 season overview
Beast Ave Boxla is led by the most experienced and credentialed box coaches in Illinois, with semi-pro, pro and international box lacrosse experience on the bench.
