I are trying to start a HS lacrosse team at my school. Neither me or my friends have any experience, we just think lacrosse looks awesome. Does anyone have any suggustions on how to get people to play, equipment, training tips, and anything else that would be helpful?

Let's see how to get people to play? I would suggest you take them to a local game or something with pretty experienced players, otherwise you would'nt want peoples first impressions of lacrosse being a bunch of people chasing after a ball like wild monkeys which they can't even pick up. Show them videos, tell them about websites, throw and catch with them, fool around with it. Alot of are curious about lacrosse, trust me, so just take your stick or something and people will look at you like.... whoa that's cool or that's interesting.

This is what you do, u get a really rich guy to fund your team. Then you bring your sticks to school EVERYDAY and lax it up during lunch between classes and even in class, so people will get used 2 seeing it and be intrested in trying it out.
