Hey paul, I am just getting started lacrosse for the first time but I have played hockey for 9 years. Are hockey gloves pretty similar to lacrosse gloves and if I don’t have lacrosse gloves and I want to practice. So would I get the same feel with hockey gloves that I’ll get with lacrosse gloves?

[@Anthony__R]

Thanks my mom just bought me and my brother sticks so we could practice and hopefully be able to play and I’m (kinda) good at passing and catching but I wanna cradle so thanks dude!

To protect the ball

Who won the breast cancer awareness stick

[@nikospielvogel6464]

main sport is soccer but I want to play lacrosse

[@AnHourOfWolves]

Why not use your bottom hand? Way less work to spin with that bottom hand, right? I guess that you'd still have to do it with your top hand if you do it single-handed, but still? I ask because of ice hockey; with ice hockey it's all about that hand on the end of the stick.

[@_Icewalker]

I’m brand new why do people cradle the lacrosse ball?

[@APRell609]

Ayeee nice

[@alvaro1999inc]
