As I have said in many earlier posts. One of the best ways to get in shape is to find a sport that you love, and get really good at it. The more activity it requires the better! Sometimes it’s hard to find a sport you love. Being a beginner usually isn’t very fun.
Today I’m going to teach you a little about LaCrosse. It’s a unique sport, but it’s very engaging and very fun. Perhaps I can perk your interest in it a bit. This article will help you understand what you need in order to play well.
All sorts of people are starting to take up LaCrosse. It is becoming more and more popular because it is such a great workout, and a fun game. Practically any age group can play it.
You’ll want to know how to cradle the ball. You have to learn how to balance the ball in the stick to keep it from falling out. This can be a bit challenging when you’re running up and down the court, but you’ll find that it comes to you pretty naturally. You need to cradle the ball while i’ts in the pocket when you want to throw it. If you can cradle it well, you’ll be able to swing it up and out of the pocket correctly and easily. Passing it will also feel very natural to you if you do it right.
Most of all you’ll want to practice passing the ball. Do it over and over again until it requires no thought. While you’re playing you’re going to need to pass quickly, and perhaps with defenders blocking you. If passing is easy for you you’ll be a good player.
If you’re right handed, you’ll want to put your left foot forward when you’re shooting for the goal. This will help you stay balanced and put much more power into your throw. To throw a goal shot, you’ll start out on your right foot, and lean onto your left while putting as much power as possible into throwing the ball out of the stick. This should be explosive!
You’ll have a lot of fun playing LaCrosse, and it will whip you into shape quick!
Good luck with it!
