How to Play Women's Lacrosse : How to Check in Women's Lacrosse

[LittleMissCutie211]

this is so helpful thx!

[dancerbeanie]

this is incorrect it is perfectly legal to check from behind.

[lacrossedivaz]

lacrosse players are skilled and powerful regardless of gender!! let's support both men and women's game.

[lacrossgirl3]

thanks so much.. but do you know if you can check from the side? this is my first year playing and one girl one my team always does it..

[lacrossedivaz]

@lacrossgirl3 hey, you can check your opponents stick if you are on the side that she has her stick...essentially, if she is cradling with her right, you have to be on her right side to check. does that make sense? you can't reach across your opponents body; a ref will always call that.

[melissa9456]

im a fagget

[gymnast91033]

oh! i just started to play lacrosse and my coach says im really good for a beginer!:) are you allowed to check at any age level?!

[mrsjakbahl]

wait do you check with yoour schtick

[zacheccles]

you can check where ever you damn please. Just don't get caught

[13dixie13]

i play guys lacrosse cuz there isnt anything els at my school and its awesome!! its so vilent and i like it cuz i play football so...... anyways no efence but girls lacrosse looks boring and next year in highschool i am not playing guys they are HUGE and i dont want to get hurt but i think im going to play at my middle school team they let you when you are in highschool.

[mercturd85]

@13dixie13 that sounds pretty gay... if you dont want to get hurt, try not playing a contact sport, like chess...

[13dixie13]

@mercturd85 that makes no sence at all i play a contact sport so i dont get it and i wont play in in highschool cuz they are realy big and im just a small girl and yes im a girl if you didnt know dick head

[mercturd85]

@13dixie13 no guy on the team would hurt you, theyd be a dick. and if your scaredplay on jv

[pineapplestripe]

You just came across her body and checked her...an illegal check.

[SoccerGrlTwilightFan]

Thank you so much im just starting Girl's Lacrosse at my High School and I have played soccer for my whole life and I wanted to try something new and your video's help out so much. Thanks again :D

[PLAYA3113]

@SoccerGrlTwilightFan ...im in that same situation, i have played soccer for as long time and i just joined middle school lax and this girl has helped me a lot.

[NikeAsH0014]

@PLAYA3113 werdd rightt

[simsfann88]

@SoccerGrlTwilightFan omg that is like the same thing with me i want to try lacrosse and kinda see if i am good at it or if i will like it so i can see if i wanna do soccer or lacrosse when i go to high school in august

[Lexightonportia]

i admit the only reason i tried out for lacrosse was because i thought we could attack eachother, like the guys do. but in the end being a good women's player builds skill and logic so i don't regret joining the team.

[dubbchi]

Thank you. This video was very helpful.

[Twistedkids]

This was an excellent tutorial. Everyone bashing wlax (mostly illiterately may I add) is just plain stupid. Think about what you are saying. Men's Lax=a game where skill~=to brute force, womens lacrosse is more, skill/agility/finesse>force/hi­tting. There is no comparasson to men's lax. Grow up, Mr. Machos

-Nick Cornell, Indiana Lacrosse

[lacrossenumber101]

@Twistedkids actually we need skill fitness agility speed strength hand eye cordination force and the ability to get up after a giant body check

[LacrosseIsBoss555]

@Twistedkids ya u dont need any skill in mens lacrosse.... metrosexual faggot

[LAXERGUY98]

mowing down other players is fun mens lacrosse pwns womens lacrosse

[IslesGirl14]

@LAXERGUY98 I hope it's still fun to you when you're eighty years old and can't move a muscle.

I respect both men's and women's lacrosse- both require the same elements.

[Aleco200]

FAIL!!!!

Shut up u don't even know what your talking about!

[ZPXDizzy]

expert village fails at teaching people how to play lacrosse. the mens one isnt even good it sucks and doesnt even teach you some of the stuff right. again, EXPERT VILLAGE FAILS!

[iSpazz96]

ok. i play lacrosse. womens is wicked boring. id muchmuchmuch rather play mens. theres more action and the pockets are deeper so the ball will STAY in the net the whole time. it usually falls out alot in womens.

[sportychik214]

if you were GOOD at womens lacrosse and you can cradle then it wouldnt fall out a lot. and guys have deeper pockets for a reason which is that they have more contact them womens.

[laxgmomo]

wat a loser! y would anybody plays lax even search this in the first place?!?! and who is the fat girl demoing? wat a fagget! learn how to check before i listen to u!!

[mattlax65]

wow learn how to play real lacrosse than talk to me(you have no skill)

[BLUESTUFF8]

if the girls play mens lacrose tht would be scary! i wouldn't relly want be playing rough and all and have more chances of getting hurt-or bruised..men play more rough than girls in sports-have u ever seen a boy or man playing in a sport not getting rough- i havent relly-but whteve

[michelleram12]

Because it's women's lacrosse...generally, men's sports can be rougher and such. Hell, I don't want to play men's lacrosse, I'm rather fine with women's rules, x3. As tempting as getting hit and flipped and shit like that is...no thanks.

[shurtugal1]

how come womens lacrosse is so different from mens lacrosse, why not just play with the same rules and everything? they're the same thing essentially, arent they

[christiandukie]

i know right, mens version would be so much funner, plus the stick is easier.

[shurtugal1]

finally someone agrees with, personally i dont mind getting bruised and hit and flipped, im tough, i get that on a weekly basis thats why im in jujitsu Playing rough is fun

[LYRICZFREAKK]

Well, I am a girl and I play girls lax and I'm perfectly happy with the little checks we get to do. GIrls lacrosse requires so much more skill, it's not just mowing down other players.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

women's lacrosse is one of the gayest things ever invented no offense

[veekeex3]

stfuu

[circescharm]

wow. why even bother adding no offense? saying that obviously offends every womens lacrosse player out there. sexist idiot.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

y is that sexist? i didnt say it because ohhh i hate womens lacrosse BECUASE women play it. u stupid fuck

[mackae1]

been around for a long time asshole

[Vader12Tater12]

technically it can´t be gay because it invoves WOMEN. It could be called lesbian though.

and you are possibly suffering from mild retardation, no offense

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

none taken cus ur the one suffering from mild retardation from taking it literally dumb ass

[Vader12Tater12]

not my fault I think more than you... gosh

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

haha no it just means u dont understand

[Vader12Tater12]

My bad, your logic makes perfect sense.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

y thank u im glad u agree

[Vader12Tater12]

Thanks for proving my point that you are a complete idiot.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

any day

[Vader12Tater12]

God, don´t take things literally, dumbass.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

i dont. i just thought if i acted like a dumbass u would feel better

[Vader12Tater12]

Your a very good actor, must not have to try hard.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

haha wow how do u kno?

[Vader12Tater12]

... only someone who calls women´s lacrosse the gayest thing ever could be a dumbass.

[AzNrIcEbOy9000]

only a dumbass could like it

[x0xmandyx0x]

NIIIIIIIIICE GOGGLESSS

[crayola3999]

isn't checking from behind legal as long as it's controlled and away from the body... or at least it was legal 2 years ago when i played

[ilublacrosse]

[Wookiee89]
