[quote=Anonymous]Let us not forget, girls play lacrosse too, and while a very different game in many ways, it can be better at the younger level because it requires more passing and does not allow raking, body checking, etc...

My daughter plays (as does her older brother) and it is great to watch these young girls with beautiful stick skills play the game.  Going from one of his travel club games, to one of her travel club games, is often like a breathe of fresh air.   You can really see the beauty of the passing game much more than in the younger boys games because the girls' game has tighter rules.

The younger girls have only recently been served by travel/elite/club teams but there are lots and lots of girls trying out and taking clinics and wanting to learn the game.  It is funny too how you can tell which girls have older grothers who they learned from, as they start out rougher and more physical.

Personally, I love lacrosse.  I love wtadching my young kids play, I love the high school and college games, I think its a great sport that tales quite a bit of skill.  I was a soccer and basketball player and never had the opportunity to play lax as it wasnt around where I grew up but, my family is orginally from the NE and my parents and uncles and aunts and grandparenst played and loved it.
