Lacrosse stick

In the end remember that you most likely want a stick that your player will grow into rather than out of. Besides- there are so many kids getting into lacrosse these days. Couldn't you sell it to some other kid for half the price you paid for it, leaving everyone happy? Molded head lacrosse sticks are now the most popular on the women's lacrosse scene. There are various types of molded heads that can be found on the market. Offset, non Offset. Open sidewall or closed sidewall. Which one you choose should depend on your position and abilities.

Lacrosse Beginnings

The history of lacrosse claims to make it the first sport of America. Created by the Native American Indian and adopted by the French and other European followers then migrated north to Canada all of whom embraced and helped the sport grow. While modern day lacrosse has been most popular in the United States and throughout Europe for over a century.

Lacrosse is a sport that combines soccer with basketball and hockey. It has become so popular because it’s easy to pick up, great exercise and anyone can play. It is a game of speed, quickness, coordination and teamwork. Now children and adults of all ages can enjoy playing this great sport.

How to play Lacrosse

Lacrosse is a sport played by two teams of ten players each for men, or twelve players each for women. The players use netted sticks known as the "crosse." The purpose of the game is to use the "crosse" to pass and catch a ball (made of rubber), and goals are scored by hurling the ball into the opposition net. It is popular mostly in North America, and is the continent's oldest and possibly fastest growing sport.

Lacrosse is actively played at the high school, college, youth and professional levels. The sport is especially popular in America's northwestern region; it is also Canada's national summer sport. Colorado, California, Texas and Tennessee have rapidly growing lacrosse communities.
