7. As previously mentioned, equipment checks are to be done during dead ball situations, such as: During a team time-out. After a goal. Before a face-off. Between periods. These checks should be done so they have a minimal impact on the flow of the game. Different areas have different policies on equipment checks, so be sure to check with your trainer to find out the local procedures. In particular, be certain to find out whether you are expected to conduct inspections in local youth lacrosse contests. One equipment-check plan that works well is to do two checks per team in the first half after goals, then do one check per team in the second half at some time other than after a goal.
