There really is no "best head". Everybody prefers different things. I mean of course there are some heads that are better than others, but its like trying to say which car is the best. Usually for defense you qould want a nice stiff head to give hard poke checks without bendingso you could go with the revo pro or the stiffi.for attach usually they go with lightness so you could go with the torque. For middie you could sue anything but you would want a nice and flexable head if you faceoff.

Light. Lighter stick equals faster hand speed for shooting for the most part.

all goals are the same size from pro to jr

except for the indoor game, they are a little smaller but it would be tough to buy an indoor one if your looking to buy one

Because they are jealous; they can't use a lax stick to save their lives.

Yes Lehigh is a division 1 school.

Males are allowed to check and females can't. Also females cradle across the body and males cradle up by the head. The males also have different strung sticks the females

Actually the only difference is that men can hit and women can't but that's not say women don't hit cause it happens. Women use the same strung stick in box it is only different in field lacrosse.

Lacrosse (in P&R teams) is usually played in the spring. That is the standard Lacrosse season. Some Travel teams play summer through fall, and in the winter there are sometimes indoor seasons

The exterior measurements of a lacrosse field is 60 yards wide by 110 yards long.

I dont think there is a rule to how close you have to be to take a shot. Depending on your skill as a shooter, you can shoot from wherever is most comfortable for you. I suggest anywhere from the 12 meter and closer for an intermediate player.

Lacrosse was originally a way for Native Americans to test their strength, endurance, and speed. They used this game as a way to settle disputes, prepare for war, or for leadership. Women were forbidden to play because the game was unsafe and had no padding involved as it does today. Games could last several months at a time and often people were killed or severely injured.

if you place your hokcey stick on the floor, with the curve bending upwards. as if you can see what the hockey looks like on the front. Then see if you can get a 2p coin through the bend i nthe stick. If you can it is ILLEGAL. :)

Yes, the sport of lacrosse has two different kinds of midfielders, otherwise known as: "Middies". There are Defensive 'middies' who stay on their side of the field, and they play on both sides of the field, but mainly on their side. The second kind is the Offensive Middie. Their job is to assist the Attack (main offensive players in lacrosse) in landing the ball into the opposing team's goal.

There are lots of places where someone can purchase sporting equipment. Especially if they are looking to buy Warrior Lacross gloves. Some of these places include; Dick's Sporting Goods, Gander Mountain, Sports Authority, Sports Chalet, Modell's Sporting Goods, and Amazon.

Seen some on ebay.co.uk Type in "glow in the dark table tennis ball" and you will see them come up.

11 girls play on the field at one time. the goalie, the center (which is the strongest player on the field) 3 defenders, 3 offenders, 3 midis/back defenders. normally there are about 18-20 on a team. college about 25 and pro it depends.

the field looks like a soccer field. its divided into 3 sections with a circle in the middle and a goal at the end of the 2 outer sections. the circle is where the ball is drawn. the two lines that help make up the middle section is the restraining line for the girls or boys who position in defense and attack. the can only pass the line if another player who can move anywhere swithches position with a defender of attacker. the people who can move anywhere stand on the circle. there a 5 hash marks on the 8 meter arc (8 meters from the goal) this is where you stand for a free shot when you get pentalized. there is also a 12 meter arc.

The stats are kept in a stat book during the game for high school and younger, however if you look at a college team they may have someone watch the video of the game for them and keep track of the stats that way.
