@@tylerrodrigues8154you are completely wrong I am a boy but I watch girls lacrosse a lot because of my tournaments and games around me and at a older age with no gear the crosschecks are pretty bad. some can get to as bad as boys. you are wrong
We have contact and get really hurt sometimes like a broken bone happened to me and a bad concussion to my teammate but girls can’t be horizontal like boys and can’t push to ground without it being a foul but I will say harder for us to catch the ball and easier to check it and to cradle
From a women's perspective, it wouldn't be as fun to play. The challenges that it brings adds so much to our sport! It has a lot of rules in order to keep the game safe, but those rules add challenges to work through and skills to continually get better at.
@@danielfarrell359 but why should women have to play an inferior version of the sport. Look at hockey, they play a very similar game without changing the equipment, speed and defense. Pretty sure there are no changes in women's rugby compared to men's. Same with a lot of other sports but contact sports are more relevant to this point.
@@notanyonespecific As a women's lacrosse player and coach, I definitely don't see it as being inferior to men's lacrosse, and I've never seen it as being sexist in any way. They are different sports. It's hard to compare a contact sport to a non contact sport. All the rules in women's lacrosse are about safety. We don't wear the same equipment as men do so there's more that can go wrong. I love how skills focused women's lacrosse is. It challenges you in so many ways and requires you to be good at what you do. There is a lot of that in men's lacrosse too, don't get me wrong, but the natures of the sport require different skills and different amounts of technicality. I know it's frustrating for people to watch women's lacrosse who don't understand the rules (and trust me, there are a lot of rules to know!) but for those who play the sports, it's incredibly fun and we wouldn't want to change it! I think the confusion for people comes in because men and women's lacrosse share the same name, but they are two different sports. The middle ground would be box lacrosse, which doesn't have a distinction between men and women. But box lacrosse is different than men's lacrosse and it's different than women's lacrosse. All three are awesome sports and I think our sport is so successful because we have all three categories of lacrosse. It allows different strengths to shine through. I wouldn't be very good at men's lacrosse, but I am good at women's lacrosse because it allows me to play into my strengths.
@@Koopatroop5421 You wear different equipment because the games aren't the same, and don't require the same equipment. You also can't shoot the ball too hard. What other sport imposes a speed limit on shooting? What other "women's" version of the sport has that much impact on the ruleset?
This game was made to get guys ready for war. I don’t understand why so many different styles/rule sets keep popping up traditional field rules will always be the game to me
Girls lacrosse definitely has contact but men’s lacrosse is just completely violent
Girls lacrosse had no contact
@@tylerrodrigues8154 ye they do
@Hjdjw Fzhua not really. There is barley any contact and it's so boring watching because there are whistles after everything.
@@tylerrodrigues8154 im not arguing that the sport is any good. I’m just saying that there is certainly contact not a lot but there is

i watched our girls team play and they call everything its not even the same game
Rules are way too strict its annoying
Thanks for saying this I didn’t really know if they had any contact or just a limited amount

Stop the cap u definitely not getting injured in girls lacrosse 💀
Yea we do but what ever
Definitely should make women’s the same as men’s be much more enjoyable to watch

What kind of lacrosse do you have?
Cap. Women's lacrosse prohibits a player from interrupting another's "shooting space". The rules of women's lax are sexist in the worst way
It’s not sexist just a different sport tbh

Contact vs Collision sport
If women’s lax has contact then basketball is a contact sport, not even the same game as men’s imo
Ngl I wish it was it would be 10x better
You cannot hit people with your stick or check toward someone
Is there d-poles in women’s
No
@@POWLAX yeah it's almost a disadvantage to us
W
I play for girls
When you showed th stock it wasn't even legal 😂
Exactly
Errr not allowed to.
Actually very true on the fact or cap scale it’s fact
lets just say girls lax is not lax it should be called somethn else
Yeah basically everything is different about it and it kind of makes lacrosse sound bad
