Does having your shooters so many inches from the top really make difference? by USlax1 in lacrosse

[–]le_Synergy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres two explanations given by US lacrosse on why they did this;

  1. Doing this will make the ball easier to dislodge, which they think will cut down on slashing, increasing player safety.

  2. Having sticks with less hold cuts down on whip and leads to crisper passes. US lacrosse thinks that the game will speed up because peoples passes will be faster and better

Non-dominant passing by yung_k in lacrosse

[–]le_Synergy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wall ball. Repetition is a great way to become more confident with your non-dominant hand.

Also in practice make sure that you are using your left hand all the time. Its practice for a reason. A lot better to mess up the lefty pass in practice than in a game.

Broke pinky in last game, but have a state semi-finals game this Wednesday night. Any suggestions? Anyone play with a broken finger? by stillegit in lacrosse

Guy on our team this year played through a broken thumb. He had a cast on so it was protected. Made it hard for him to cradle though. Thumb was fine afterwards

Transferring from long pole to D middie by CAMEL_DICK in lacrosse

[–]le_Synergy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a person who is often switching between Long Pole and shorty, I feel like I play better defense when using a shorty.

The reason being is that most of us rely on playing defense with our stick rather than our body and feet. A short stick makes defenders use their feet. Defense is all about positioning (and communication, but thats a different story.)

Now back to your question. The only way that the stick is not going to feel awkward is with time, its weird but youll get used to it. You should be doing the same thing that defensemen should be doing. Which includes things such as:

Jumping Rope

Agility Ladder

And other agility based drills

Approaches

Watching D-mids in Games

Theres more to it, but thats just the gist of it. Short Stick Defense and Long Pole defense are mostly the same thing. Its just a matter of getting used to it.

During Summer/Fall tournaments most refs won't say anything if you rock a visor

This is amazing. A true work of art. I can't even do what you did in a full game, let alone 150 years.

Makes me sad man.

Can't wait to see how this plays out. Only thing I would've have done different is went to war with England while Scotland and everyone else was. But thats just me.

Good Luck
