Lacrosse

    Unlike many people, lacrosse is one of my favorite sports. Sadly, not many people like it or even know about it so it's not too popular. It's very hard to find a league near where I live. This sport involves these things called sticks that have a shaft and a head to throw, catch, and shoot the ball. The ball is about the size of a tennis ball and is rubber and kind of heavy.

(These are two lacrosse sticks.)

The official lacrosse league is called the MLL. My favorite team are the New York Lizards simply because they're so good and they have my favorite/best player on the team, Paul Rabil. Paul Rabil is a professional player that's 6'3 and the age of 29. He's sponsored by many companies and also won many lacrosse championships and tournaments. This most recent lacrosse season, he was newly drafted to the New York Lizards and that same season he won the championship and got MVP.

The game of lacrosse is rapidly growing and I believe more people should play the game. If you are interested in the game, checkout an awesome youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/TheLacrosseNetwork that shows the game at it's finest.
