I started playing lacrosse in 6th grade, and my first game was a summer league game and i didn't know the first thing about the sport. After nonstop days hitting the wall, shooting at paper targets on a fence, and getting better with my off hand, i am now a freshman starting varsity at midfield. all you have to do is practice, practice, practice. You will reach your goal... all it takes is practice.

I'm in 10th grade and this spring is gona be my first time playing lacrosse. I'm so nervous cuz the guys on the team get super mad and annoyed when first year players mess up. But after seeing your story it definitely gave me some more inspiration to practice more and get a little more confidence.

dude just go on the wall as much as possible. if you can get good at your off hand everyone will respect that.
@sessionscoat9 жыл бұрын
what the Phil kid said. the only way you can start picking corners is by learning how to pass and catch consistently
@manlikemuffin9 жыл бұрын
Just keep at it. I know how u feel because I was a first year recently and it sucks to get yelled at. Keep hitting the wall, practice your cradling and take some shots when you can and I guarantee that you'll get better

I'm in 7th grade and I've been wanting to play lacrosse for about a year now. I was skeptical at first because there are some really mean kids on the team that I would be playing for but a lot of my friends (who are on the same team) are helping me out. But, after seeing this, I am a lot more inspired. And if anybody actually reads this, what would a good starter stick be?
@ObscureGarage.9 жыл бұрын
If you've never played I'd look at the complete sticks dicks has. The Nike Blur complete is a pretty good starter stick and it runs about $40USD. Just find a wall or someone to play catch with and get the hang out passing with BOTH hands and cradling.

I've been playing lacrosse for 4 years now and my first stick was a stx amp my stick I have now is rabil 2 x with throne mesh with a combat shaft and if you go to my IG (lacrosse) and message me I will string your head for 10$ so if anyone reads this tell everyone you know

I have been playing lax since I was in kindergarten and my first ever game I played goalie. I was this little dood and I scored my first goal.....on myself. I basically just quit and told my coach to not put me in ever again and I wanted to quit. I was inspired by my sister and I decided to try another season. I have now been playing for 9 years and I play attack. I want to play college but don't want to go pro. And btw my number is #99 to lol. I now am super excited that lax is starting up in 3 days and I want to improve myself every day

I actually played for the Montgomery Village lacrosse team in elementary and middle school and its kind of sad that Paul probably doesn't even know they're not in existence anymore. MVSA shut down the boys lacrosse program 2 years ago because no one wanted to be the commissioner and no one wanted to play for them.

this is pretty disappointing Paul Rabil. When you were in 3rd grade Watkins Mill HS (down the road from your house) was putting out Div 1 lacrosse players, UNC, UMBC, Air Force, Hofstra and a few others. Saying Lacrosse was just sanctioned at the HS level when you got there is flat out wrong.. Watkins Mill was coached by a Corrigan and Chip Bonde who played at the Naval Academy and Maryland. You got picked up by Dematha, good for you...you just lost a fan in me. You are way to full of yourself. ugh...
