7. Lacrosse – A great game!
It’s fast, it’s fun, it’s dangerous – it’s lacrosse, one of the most exciting team games
that you can play.
Lacrosse is played in some schools and universities in England and in the USA, but it’s also an
Olympic sport and it’s an exciting game to watch either live or on TV.
Modern lacrosse looks like a combination of football and hockey. Like football, it’s played on
a pitch with goals at each end. There are ten members in each team, and the aim is to get
the ball into your opponents’ goal using a lacrosse stick. This is a cross between a tennis
racket and a fishing net, and it means you can catch the ball or throw it at great speed from
one end of the pitch to the other.
So if you ever get the chance to see or play it, have a go.
It’s been called the fastest game on two feet and is a great game.
