5.0 out of 5 stars The textbook for Lacrosse play, April 21, 2000
By Michael J Webb (Miami, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This book is a must for any lacrosse player. It covers all aspects of the game from its history, to its play.

As a player one learns all of the fundamentals of the sport. Equipment, rules, plays, defensive and offensive strategies and techniques are all covered.

As a coach one gets a good foundation from which to build. It includes drills and practices to follow.

Table of Contents-

Section I: The Game and Its History

1. the game of lacrosse. 2. a brief history. 3. the rules. 4. what makes a player.

Section II: Techniques and Tactics

5. fundamentals. 6. individual offence. 7. team offence. 8. extra-man offense. 9. individual defense. 10. team defense. 11. man-down defense. 12. goal tending. 13. clearing. 14. riding. 15. fast breaks. 16. faceoffs. 17. drills.

Section III: Lacrosse at Johns Hopkins

18. the eighty-seven-year record 19. my twenty Hopkins teams.

I hope that this was of help
