Lacrosse is a sport that its origins find among the Indians of North America and Canada. This, then lethal variant caused the young warriors were picked to lead to participate in the battles. The French have this "activity" modified so it could be played in a game format. They took the best elements of basketball, Rugby and Hockey and joined it together. Result: the fastest sport on two feet was a fact. The intention is that players ensure that a ball, similar to a rubber tennis ball in the goal arrived from the other team. They get help from a stick with a net. So they can protect the ball as well on passing and shooting..

There is a difference between men and women lacrosse. First, in a men's team there are 23 players with 10 on the field and a female team is played with 18 players of which 12 on the field. It is also an essential difference that the men play a full contact sport and women not. Result is that they are playing with different sticks. In women, this one size fits all except the goalie. For men, you have three types of sticks. The Goalie stick has a larger net, the Defense Stick 1m80 tall and 1m ordinary stick. In addition, the net of a menstick is deeper so not loosing the ball will be some easier. For women this is more like a tennis racket, the ball making it faster from falling
