lacrosse

Sports are a great way to have fun and keep in shape! A sport that i enjoy playing is Lacrosse. It's a sport that is played with a ball and a stick. At the end of the stick, there is a part called the head, which is a netted piece, that is used to catch the ball. The ball is thrown and caught with the stick from player to player and you shoot with it too. It includes a lot of running, which is great for getting or keeping in shape. Also, it's a great way to make new friends and it gives you something to do, rather than sitting at home. Last year i played lacrosse for my school team. It was a great experience and i loved it! I was able to meet a lot of new people in my school and i learned a lot about them, and the sport. I hope to play all four years.

I love lacrosse too! As you know I played last year too and it was a great experience. I played club during the off season and learned to play a defensive position as well as my usual goalie position. Fun fact: Lacrosse was originated my Native Americans!

I agree Lacrosse is one of the best sports to keep in shape. Over the years I have played every sport imaginable and none compare to the endurance and strength needed to play Lacrosse. Lacrosse combines the running of soccer and hitting of football. I guess I should thank the Native Americans for creating such a great sport.
