New Gilman Goals are Coming to Tucker Field
Players and fans love Gilman lacrosse goals because of the distinctive “ping” heard when a shot stings the net just inside the pipes, but that is only part of the reason that Gilman goals are the best in lacrosse.
The new goals are much easier for our volunteers to set up and breakdown for winter storage, and the nets will not sag or stretch during the season. The innovative Gilman net is installed without having to tie the net to the frame. No stringing! The net is fastened to the frame by sliding 5 stainless steel rods through the vinyl border sleeves and into a series of rings. The rings are welded to the base frame and uprights.
From the first frigid Blue Claws practices on February evenings to the last Bulldogs Championship games on warm May weekends, our goals will look and play like new! Tucker Field is the premier outdoor youth lacrosse facility in Harford County, and the addition of our new custom-painted Gilman goals takes it up another level. We strive to maximize this resource and share it across the entire lacrosse program. See “Who uses Tucker Field?” in our FAQ for more information.
We are holding a fundraiser to select the color of the new goals. Vote with your donation for your favorite goal color!

Bel Air Boys Lacrosse does not mandate that participants fundraise by selling raffle tickets, pizza, candles, etc. Although the bull roasts of the past have been fun, they also entail a lot of work and funding from our program volunteers and parents. Donations are an important source of income for our budget. Please realize that all of the proceeds go directly to the Program. We appreciate your consideration.
