offsides is when the defense or attack cross the mid line* but there are exception with the defense like if a middie stays behind the midline the defense person can go across this is called middie back
*There must be a certain number of players on each side of the mid line per team, which is the reason for offsides. (the number of players mandatory on each side per team varies)
Each team has to have 4 players in their Defensive end and 3 players in there offensive end. If a team has less then 4 or 3 respectively this would be offsides. Any player including long pole, goalie, mid field or attack can cross the middle line as long the side they are leaving has the correct number of players remaining. Although not common a goalie could technically go end to end all over the field with being penalized for offsides.
So for example if a player crosses the middle line leaving less the minimum number of players remaining in the end that team would be penalized for the infraction with either a loss of possession or a 30 second technical penalty.

: There are tons of differences. You can start with where you play, obviously, field or an arena. The defensemens sticks are different lengths(field lacrosse defenders have 6 foot long sticks, box defenders have normal sticks), the size of the nets and the goalies.6 by 6 feet in field, 4 by 4 in box. Size of the goalies,full padding in box with little room to shoot at, or field, where the only difference between the goalie and the players is the stick.The fact that there are offsides in field lacrosse, there are no offsides in box. etc. : I'm bored so im not going to list any more, but i could go on for pages on how they are different.
