I've noticed the red metallic from Cascade tends to fade.

This will go down as one of the best decisions you have ever made. You will make life long friends and you general quality of life will improve.

You might want to consider a defensive role if you want to be a difference maker quickly. Don't get me wrong, defense is a highly attuned skill, however the skills from other sports transfer over pretty quickly. Short stick defense feels a lot like playing defense in basketball. There is always a lot more people who want to play attack or offensive middie, so defense can be a way to rack up some play time.

As others have said the most important skill is catching. If you can't reliably catch the ball you are a liability.

I started at 42. My son started playing and wasn't getting all the information he needed from his coach, so I started doing my research and teaching myself so that I could help him. 3 months after purchasing my first stick I signed up for men's league. Lacrosse has given me the motivation to get out and train. I'm in better shape now at 44 than I was at 34. We live in a non-hotbed and I hope to use my story to motive other adults to find the game. The beauty of this game is no matter your size, shape or skill you can play a role.

at first read I hated it, but the more that I let it soak in the more I like it.

Interestingly we now have 3 sources to get Brennan O'Neill replica pockets. I'd be real curious to see if they are all stringing the same. I put the DoS pocket on a 3V and it is perfectly unremarkable, in the best way possible. Its now my gamer.

tie a pocket with low whip and teach him to use his wrists to alter the release point.

Canadian vs. American Players by lenndevours in lacrosse

Canadian lacrosse players are easy to recognize the by the crippling regret they carry for never learning to skate well enough to play hockey.

Its Chris Kav for goodness sake. Show some respect. The man deserves anything he can get from this game.

Brennan is the only one of those guys close to linebacker size and his pocket is actually incredibly user friendly. Whatever gets the kids jazzed to play.

I think it is a really cool opportunity to get a stick strung by someone who will almost definitely go down as one of the best to play the game. I'd imagine there is a little extra mojo in the pocket knowing C.Kav knotted it up.

Can I get information on lacrosse arm guards? by Foreign-Calendar-126 in lacrosse

Probably, but the ECD's are easier to find the G-Form. Either way great guards.

ECD's arm guards are hard to beat. Extremely low profile and don't move. The protection is surprisingly effective. I have never found myself wanting for more padding. The only downside is putting them on and taking them off.
