New Crease Dimensions?

[OutBurst]

My turf field at Pomperaug has a crease of 9' radius which is what the 2005 NFHS regs along with the 2005 NCAA Men's Lacrosse Rulebook require. Was there a change between last season and this season when determining the dimensions of the crease? I remember the creases in MA last season were a lot smaller, maybe a 6' radius. Today it seems as though one could fit an actual home in the crease.

No, the crease has always been a 9' radius, NCAA and NFHS.

Maybe the people that yo uplay for just started making them regulation? b/c we just had our feild repainted and we thought the crease was huge, but i dont know.. it has always been 9 feet though.

Sometimes the people painting confuse "diameter" and "radius." That makes a big difference, but it shouldn't go unnoticed by the officials.

women's crease is 8.5', you might be used to playing that due to some sort of lining mishap?

OUCH! 6' is the width of the goal! Thats tighter than the girdle and the "bro" these old-timey refs are wearing these days!! That dude in goal musta been a dwarf...

Only 8.5 inches? How do they fit the goal in there?
