The Arizona Sting were a lacrosse team based in Phoenix, Arizona playing in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). The 2006 season was the 6th in franchise history and 3rd in Arizona.

After making it to the Championship game in 2005, the Sting had a disappointing 8-8 season in 2006. The Sting upset the division-winning Portland LumberJax 14-10 in the Western Division semifinals, but the eventual champion Colorado Mammoth defeated the Sting 13-12 in Colorado in the Division finals.
