Lacrosse

My brother played for West Rock and they were an awesome team and played in like 6 tournaments over the summer. Tri State is a really good team. Also is team superstar. I mean to be honest you can find a lot of good teams on google by searching "travel lacrosse teams in NY"

you should use RIT dye you can get it at and stores like riteaid, walmart and any other store. I use rit dye and it worked perfectle but dont put the mesh in the dye for to long or it wil be to dark and it will look bad.

if the weather is rain which i think is pretty much the only way to ruin lacrosse mesh besides leaving it in the sun to long..i dont think there is a way to make the mesh waterproof unless there is somekind of spray or something. but after the mesh gets wet put a small towel or newspaper inside of the head to absorb water. also there is waterproof pockets you can put in your head. one is called a rock-it pocket and there website is http://rock-itpocket.com/ (if you want to look) and you can send your head into them and they will string your head for $50 which is kind of expensive but that is waterproof and it makes you shoot faster. also if you go into your local lacrosse store you can ask for a pocket called a traditional pocket and that is also waterproof. both of those type of pockets are not mesh though. they are i think leather and elastic or something like that. they take a bit to get used to too. hopefully that helps!

Throwing with a goalie stick should be done in an overhand motion. The release point would be just past the shoulder at 11 o'clock. The difficulty comes in when the stick is strung incorrectly. This is the case with most off the shelf sticks. You want a stringing done so that you have a deep pocket (to catch) and a tight top (to throw). The best way to string is for all the sidewall being taught and when you get to the bottom string locate that string through 2-4 diamonds below where the last sidewall string went through. This allows for a deep pocket down low and slowly rises to a taught mesh towards the top, allowing the ball to roll from the pocket to the shooting strings with ease. Lastly the shooting strings. If you feel the ball bump off the last shooting string then it is too close to the pocket side, move it up a diamond, or remove it all together. I find two shooting strings works best and I do not bother with that 3rd U or V string. With a well done string job it is not needed.

This absolutely awesome sport originated with the North American Indians. The french explorers of the great lakes area saw the Indians played it and named it la crosse after the french name for a bishop's crook, which is what the original sticks looked like.

12 on the field including goalie i believe

Lacrosse usually starts in march and ends in june. But you can also play in winter and fall leagues. Also practices usually start in February.

Syracuse University, they have always been ranked higher than Notre Dame. What now Tucker G- that's rite MG went there!

lacrosse sticks have whip for two main reasons. The first is, so that you can have more powere on shots and crisper passes. This is also a downfall of whip. It requires more strength and power to make a pass because it is going on a straight line. Also with whip you can dip your head back farther and wind up more. With whip you may have to change your game style

its probably because you're ancestors ran into a tree

and had a significant brain injury and decided to pass those genes to yours,

making you an idiot.

you should go see a mirror.

you'll see what i mean.

Please choose my answer!

Good luck!

women wear eye protection such as goggles, a mouth guard, gloves(optional), and use their stick or crosse. men wear helments with a face guard, mouth guard, padded gloves, and shoulder, rib, and arm pads, they also use their crosse

Bill Belichick played center and tightend while at Wesleyan University.

Lacrosse is a game played by a team using a small rubber ball and a stick with a long handle called a crosse. It is physical sport with a fair amount of player contact so padding and defence mechanisms are always worn. Women's lacrosse is usually played at college or university institutes or alternatively there are community teams that one can join.

i will reference to a football field 10 yard lines to help paint u a picture. At the 50 yard line, is the midfield line. and at apporximately the 25 yard line are the restraining lines. within each restraining line there is a restraining box.

lacrosse wasnt introuduced to the us. it was started in north America by the native Americans

draw in soccer is when both teams scores are the same at the end of the match.

0 - 0

2 - 2

If the soccer game ( football for us Brits ) is a cup match and a winner HAS TO BE FOUND, extra time is played, followed by a penalty shoot out till the winner is decided.

yes. any cleat used in sports played on grass (football, soccer, field hockey,etc) can be interchanged

A midfielder is a player who plays both offense and defense with an attack shaft and may play on both sides of the lacrosse field as long as there are only 5 other players on the same team on the same half of the field (excluding the goalie).

Go to insidelacrosse.com go to forums go to stick doctors lounge and their you will find hundreds of amazing tips from the best stringers there are about different things on different threads or use the search function in the forums and search a beginer tutorial or better yet just click the tutorial sticky you will understand when you get there you may have to register don't worry its free but if you are really interested in stringing extremely well i highly recommend registering for the sight trust me there is much more to stringing than you think and no matter how much you think you know trust me there is more possibilities also i suggest learning to string mesh first it is simpler and much more popular traditional stringings look better but require much more maintenance they both are different you will have to experiment yourself to learn whats better its all preference

Yeah it does cause your always running and jumping witch is called exercising...Then the next day you'll be sore...so just get enough sleep and rest and the next day you may be good as new depending how much soreness you have...But anyways it does make you loss weight

Any head can be put on any shaft. All you have to do is put the bottom of the head in warm not boiling water, just warm tap water for a few minutes and it should slide rite on to your maverick shaft if it doesn't already.

as you know there are 3 attackmen and defenders on each side of the field, both behind the restraining line. There is also a goalie on each side of the field. There will be 3 middies on each side of the 50 yard line with both teams having their own side. two middies, 1 from each team, will line up on each side of the field crouching down. They will have the outside of their pocket facing the ball with the pocket punched inside out. Not one part of the lacrosse stick can touch the ball as also their sticks must be parrallel. The ref will tell you to go down and when the whistle blows they will both go after the ball. As the other middies can help everyone else must stay behind the restraining line until the ref calls possession.

But the above is just for men's lacrosse. In women's lax, there are 5 middies per team: four around the circle and one in the middle per team. Then there are three low defense and low attackmen behind the restraining line per team. The backs of the heads of the sticks of the two girls in the middle (one for each team) are pressed together with the ball in between. On the whistle, the heads are pulled or pushed up and away, sending the ball through the air. This is called the draw. The ball can go anywhere depending on the skill of the centers; usually it is drawn to a teammate waiting on the circle, but you can draw the ball to yourself; you just have to be tall so you can grab it and gain possession.

Because the men's game is very violent, legally, so they wear padding. The women's rules do not allow you to hit, we do it anyway and do not wear padding. People seem to think women are incapable and more fragile then men, but we can do whatever we want.

The difficulty of lacrosse has many factors. Location, effort, level of play and position are the main ones. Location because in the northern states, lacrosse is very popular and the kids are very talented. In the southern states, generally teams are more basic, however there are many advanced and elite teams. Level of play is a factor because when kids hit their growth spurt, there skills flourish and they become much better. Positions are all equally as important, but some are easier than others.
