Lacrosse Essay, Research Paper

During spring break I went to the beautiful state of Arizona where me and my father were

going to play golf all week long. We stayed with my dads old college friends. Well me

and my dad finished playing golf one day so we went back to the house and we heard one

of the kids had a Lacrosse Tournament. I never went to a lacrosse function so I thought

that it would be interesting.

It was a very hot day, as it is everyday in Arizona The game starts of with the ref

putting the ball in the middle and a guy from each team tries to fight for there team to

have the ball. Each player has a stick and on the top of the stick is a head with web in it

so it is easier to catch the ball when it is thrown to you. Lacrosse is kinda like the game

hockey where you have to pass to one other and try to shoot it at the goal but in lacrosse

the neat is a little smaller but the field is just as big as the rink. Lacrosse seemed pretty

interesting to me because it had the contact like hockey and you had to have the skill to

dodge the hits and try to score.

I never relized how interesting Lacrosse was, I wish I had tried to play it when I

was in Highschool. There are so many things that you have to do in the game that

amazes me. The skill that you have with the stick is something that you could not play

without. I tried to play at the end of the tournament but all I achieved was looking like a

fool. The game is a very hard game to play and I give credit to all the players who play

or try to play the game. I am really glad that I had the chance to experience a Lacrosse

tournament and am looking forward to my next one.
