While the technology of the game has changed significantly since this book was written, the information contained inside is still quiet relevant. Only the sections on stick and pocket maintenance, and the section on goalie equipment are dated and mostly of historical value. The rest of the book features solid and easy to understand explanations of skills and drills to improve them. At the low price available used it's an extremely solid investment if you're looking for a good book on box lacrosse skills.

If you're a beginner to the game of box lacrosse, this book will get you off on the right foot. Hinkson lays things out in simple format and uses photographs to emphasize his points, plus he tells you how to practice what you learn. Not everyone would agree will Hinkson's approach to the game, but his ideas aren't what one would call controversial either.

Fans of the game will enjoy this one too, as they'll find their ability to follow the game improves.
