Shoot Straight Run Hard
Have you heard about a “foreign” sport called lacrosse, but it started in America. It is a mystery to me how it turned out that way. My opinion lacrosse is a sport every athlete should consider. It started from the indians, has lots of different positions, and is complicated to play.
Lacrosse is a amazing sport. Even though it is not the same as it once was it still has a colorful history. Since this sport has been around for so long a couple countries have put their own twist on it. Now it is growing because people have began making leagues for younger ages and it becomes a way for people to make money for starting a club for it.

That is what makes this game so bruttle. They don’t wear a lot to protect them considering the way they play and what they use. We’re going to find out what you know on the subject. The boys wear a lot of protective gear that is required. Those include a helmet, shoulder pads, gloves, and mouth guard. they can also wear elbow pads but they are not required. If you’re reading this type yes in the comments. Other equipment that’s not required include a cup, cleats and any athletic gear you are comfortable wearing. As odd as it may sound they don’t wear anything on your legs you wear shorts. So that you have a lighter load when you’re on the field. Every player is required to have a stick that meet the standards for their position, age, and gender. The girls wear eye protection and a mouth guard.

Then two players from opposite sides do a face off. They get into a squatted position and when the referee starts the game they try and get the ball to their teammates. Who are on the outside of the circle. The other players can't move until the ball is touched by the players in circle. That is called a face off. Face offs are also used to start new quarters and after a goal is scored.The players may only use their sticks to catch, throw, and run with the ball. only the goalie can use his hands. The way players get the ball is by hitting it away from the opposing team. Aswell as getting a missed throw or pass. When hitting to get the ball loose they usually hit the ball-carriers hand or stick to make them drop it.They may also body check if the opponent is within 5 yards of a loose ball. A body check may only occur from the front or the side either above the waist or below the shoulders and you must have both hands on your stick at that times. If the ball goes out of bound then the opposing team gets the ball. If it goes out on a unsuccesful shot the opposing player closest is awarded the ball. The game is resumed by starting a new play not passing it in.
