 All right everybody, how are we? What is going on? You know, I've just thought of something really funny. There's a guy who I follow look I'm gonna give I'm finally gonna give him a shout out because he was a big inspiration behind me You know starting my youtube channel back in the day probably starting, you know bodybuilding back in the day Even starting this this clothing brand my clothing brand major key physique. His name is freeze ma I won't tell you his real name, although I do know it He's from New Zealand to be making youtube videos for probably about seven years now and um at the start of his video. He said And I quote and tell me what you tell me what you would think if you heard me say this at the start of a video Okay, imagine this what is up everyone? What is going down? Welcome back to another video Now I've just completely and utterly contradicted myself there. What is up? What is going down? Well, I don't know freeze ma But uh, it really cracked me up. Okay. I watched the video last night. He said what is up? What is going down? And I just lost it and um, I thought I'd have to mention that in fact this morning I just about said what is going down and uh, we're not gonna do that So look what I want to do today is something I have wanted to do for a long long time And that is to check out one of the other great american sports. So I'm told and that is lacrosse More more specifically, I feel like it's called field lacrosse, but I don't know So what I've done is I've gone and selected five different videos to do with lacrosse And we're going to work our way through them today. I don't know what I'm going to see I don't exactly know the rules. So the first video we're going to watch is called The rules of field lacrosse explained and I can't wait to watch it. It's been sitting here on my desktop for ages I've got all these videos. I've just slowly worked through. I'm going to new zealand in two days for new years My dad surprised me with an amazing christmas present, which is a trip back another trip back So life is good. All I'm doing before I go is I'm trying to record as many reactions as possible I'll edit them whilst I'm away and you guys are going to enjoy them today We're going to finally once and for all learn the rules of field lacrosse So let's do that Nin explains the rules of field lacrosse The objects of the game Nin explains, okay I actually vividly remember this guy's name Nin and also his voice and his channel because back in the day Probably about a year ago. I looked at one of his videos Talking about the differences between canadian football and american football and back then I didn't know enough And it kind of went all over my head. So I should probably watch that video again, but today Nin I don't know if you're qualified to teach me about lacrosse seeing as you're from england, but we'll give it a go three minutes 56 long 260,000 views 6.4 thousand likes and 66 dislikes It's got to be good. Let's get into it. Name is for your team to score more goals than the opposing team to score First thing we say is a little shake a little joke little shimmy. Well, there you go A player must use his lacrosse stick and shoot the ball into the goal Biba bang bang off the left Fling off the right into the top corner. What a goal The ball must completely cross the goal line and the shooting player must not step into the goal crease for a goal to count Goals are six foot wide and six foot high and the goal crease is 18 feet in diameter The field is a hundred and ten yards. Six foot high six foot wide It's not huge and I guess if that attacking player can't get into that circle I guess the goalie's got a shot at stopping it long by 60 yards wide and the goals are located 15 yards in 20 20 110 yards. Okay rugby field 60 yards wide It looks like a rugby field The game starts with the face off What what do we just see two balls going against each other? Wowie look at that. Oh my god, it's a it is like rugby. It's like a scrum It's a mixture of it's a mixture of uh rugby and hockey Okay What's the team has possession of the ball they will now I'm thinking. Okay. What's the average like body type body size For a lacrosse player. Is it big? Is it slight? You know, what do you need? Do you need exhilaration? Do you need agility or do you need strength? Do you need a 40 inch vertical jump? You probably do Try move the ball towards the opposing goalie and try and score You can pass the ball directly between teammates Pass it along the ground to a teammate or create the ball It is lit and okay, and they've got football helmets. Okay, so it's literally a mixture of rugby So far it's a mixture of rugby hockey and football run with it The idea is in handball set up in good position to be able to shoot the ball towards the goal Oh look at the goal the goal's in the middle. It's not at the end of the it's actually really interesting The goal is not at the end of the field. So you can there's you know, probably 10 15 yards Behind the goal that you can still play and actually how how many yards is that? Okay, so there's 15 yards from the goal line to the end of the field And the goals are located 15 yards in at each end of the field. I probably should have listened to that Oh, shit Okay, so there's no actual tackles as such it's body checking stick checking Just like they're doing hockey They consist of one goal tender three defenders three midfielders and three attackers Whoa, there's 10 players on a field. That's more than I thought The big difference between field lacrosse and box lacrosse is that in field lacrosse You must keep at least four players including the goalie in your defensive half of the field And you must keep three players in your attacking half of the field And that is like netball believe it or not. Shit, man. How many sports do you want to combine? The three midfielders may go anywhere on the field. They wish another difference is that up to four players on each team Oh, yeah, well in netball. I don't know if you play netball in um, america and canada But we certainly do here and you got seven players on a netball team I think three can stay down this end three can stay down that end and one the center can roam the whole field So three three three not too hard to understand. Let's continue Do you see that little dead leg there on each team can use a long lacrosse stick The game is played in four 15 minute quarters for a total playing time of 60 minutes Highest score at the end of 1811. Holy shit wins Just like an ice hockey field lacrosse is filled with things you can and cannot do Should you break one of these rules? You will serve a time penalty leaving your team with one less player and your opponents with a man advantage 15-year penalty advantage is known as the extra man offense or manner This makes it easier to score as there is one less player to defend the net The team with the man in the penalty box is known as man down And usually they defend like crazy until the time of the penalty expires Right But they still need the four players to be up at the other end or three players Actually, how many players are there one two One two three four five six plus the four up the front No, there's one off so there's three up the front Personal fouls such as tripping and on sportsmen like conduct results in a 60 second penalty Major fouls such as using illegal equipment and disputing with the officials results in a three minute penalty So that's basically field lacrosse in a nutshell But there's a few other things that you'll need to do to only have a 30 second penalty or 60 second penalty The game must be go go go go. There can't be a lot of stoppages, but we're about to find out Stand before playing or going to a game for example offsides As previously mentioned before you must keep at least four players in your defensive All he did was a little step, but That shit gets me off my feet man. I love it. I love it because I like doing it on the field That's the only reason why that's the reason why I love duking man I can remember back when I was 15 16 coming home after school Practicing stepping on the way home Bang bang bang that was the time literally 16 to 17 was was the age that I fully developed Any step that I have in my repertoire right now and it's because I practiced practiced practiced practiced and dumb you know Just to see it on the field in front of me in any sport I know what it feels like to to make that kind of cut to make that kind of duke and it feels Incredible when it comes off. I just love it. I don't know why I love it some guys love trucking I mean I love trucking. I love the spin move, but there's nothing like oh, there's just nothing like it It's the kind of steps that I tried to teach early on in my youtube channel But I didn't quite know how to put it into words So I should probably go back and revisit some of my sidestepping tutorials But with that being said let's continue Half and three players in your score that this means that you can have a maximum of seven players in your defensive half Any more than that and the funding player will be called for offside and the player sends off for 30 seconds Sorry, I was watching the player didn't In your attacking half this means that you can have a maximum of seven players in your defensive half Yeah, any more than that and the funding player will be called for offside and the player sends off for 30 seconds Okay, so if you break one of those rules about positioning on the field, it's a 30 second penalty Sudden death overtime There are no ties in field lacrosse. So overtime periods are played to determine the winner These periods usually last a maximum of five minutes First team to score a goal wins What has happened there? It's usually last a maximum. What are they doing the five minutes first team to score a goal wins Substitution There are unlimited substitutes in field lacrosse and can be made on the fly so long as it's in the designated area Shot clock in major league lacrosse only once you've taken possession of the ball You have 60 seconds in which to shoot the ball and opposing goal If you haven't shot the ball within 60 seconds, the other team is awarded the ball Okay Cool So it's a go-go-go game. There's a lot of action. It's a shot clock There's offside rules There's only a very small penalty. There's uh, no no no stopping the game for substitutions I think the game From what i've seen so far would be pretty fast paced for that full 60 minutes. I don't even know if they stop Two-point goal In major league lacrosse only if you shoot the ball from outside this area and it goes in Oh We've got a long distance shot. That would be a nice one. This is worth two goals I wonder what the longest shot in lacrosse history would be Rule does not apply in any of the lacrosse That's a lot to take in but as you watch your play field lacrosse the rules will become clear If you found this video at all helpful, please like comment share and subscribe It takes me ages to make one of these things and good. Oh Breakthrough scores it ready. You can also post this video and discuss it there But in the meantime enjoy field lacrosse The helmets look mean. I've got to be honest Uh, all right, mate. We'll give you a like and that is our first video of the day Now I will show you the selection we've got For the four other videos. We've got we've got lacrosse on a gopro And you know what we're gonna watch that one now Let's see what Let's see. Let's see what it really feels like to play a first person Yeah, we're going no buckles, right? Oh Are you on me bro? You guys ready? Let's do it quick. Hey, this is pretty sweet Just a pickup game down at the field What happened there? Did he knock it out of his hand? He's at the back of his neck or was that a trick pass behind his head? I think he just lost it. Oh, what happened there? That is a beautiful move if he did a backwards pass behind his head So that's him there 63 We've got we've got this backwards pass. He did it on purpose, didn't he? Or did he try and shoot from behind his head and the goal he stopped? I don't know How do you want me to break? Oh the side step behind the head. There we go. There it is There it is the double pump The fake beautiful stick check. It's like a fucking receiver out Do something I'm seeing it all now behind the neck. We've got a bounce pass. We've got a double pump I mean, what's next? Oh, you think that's a good step there Well I'll show you a good step. All right guys, that was fun. That was fantastic We finally started it and that's all you got to do. You got to turn the fucking camera on press play And just see what happens. I hope you've enjoyed this video. This is literally my first ever look at lacrosse I think I may have seen a few photos. Maybe maybe I've seen like a 10 second 20 second clip before in my life. I've never seen a Behind the back pass. I've seen that in rugby not in lacrosse I've never seen a bounce pass. I've seen that in basketball not in lacrosse And uh, you know, I've never seen a double pump shot. I mean, I've seen that in handball But not in lacrosse So it seems as if there's just a whole heap of different sports rolled into one and that's similar to afl here in australia The sport where you'll see people get mossed on a daily basis. Uh, just like randy moss afl Aussie rules football. It's a it's a mixture of basketball. It's a mixture of volleyball. It's a mixture of rugby. It's a mixture of Soccer gaelic football Among many others. So if you are interested check out australia's national sport afl I'm not into it. I'm into rugby, but you might be so with that being said have a fantastic night And I'll see you in the next one
