It's a great game and it's getting bigger...the season is just getting underway too, so dig in and maybe take some time to watch a live college game or even a pro box LAX game -- if you haven't been, then you are really missing something.
I grew up playing some serious box lacrosse, but now that I live in the US it's all about field lacrosse. I couldn't quite catch on to the field rules, so I took up being a referee and that helped alot. Now I'm coaching the little guys too, 'cause I've decided to live vicariously through my boys now and they have to play whether they want to or not! :) (Don't worry, they love it...)
The good news, is that the game is really catching on here in Cali, 'cause from what I understand it's been a big hit in the east for a long time. The bad news is that we don't have a local club, so we travel nearly an hour to another city to play -- its for the love of the game.
LAX...The fastest game on two feet.
