Lacrosse is one of the oldest sports in the US. It dates back to the native Americans that played it to honor the Creator. Called the fastest game on two feet it combines the running of soccer, the hand and eye coordination of baseball, and the agility of hockey and basketball. It is a great place for athletes of all sizes to compete as you don't have to be 7' tall to play, you just have to be tenacious! It is definitely a game that develops great athleticism.
