Hey people, I need to practice my shooting and stuff. I am visiting my dad on base in Ft. Meade, Maryland and will be here for another 2 weeks. I havent found any lax nets to shoot on on base, and I dont want to buy one.
I dont want to go far off base if I don't have to because I dont know where I am going.
Help me please!!!

yea but some places chain then up or take them inside, so people don't steal them.
and you could always just use a wall. chalk up a goal shape. or just boxes about where the corners would be.

Yeah, some places but on a military base? Where are they going to take it? How do they get a lacrosse goal off the base?

Yeah, I tried Meade High School, and I did not see any. I guess I will have to settle for a wall.

the wall will work fine you just have to make a goal and mark a spot for the corners but never throw in like an alley and shoot hard it goes from wall to wall and it is insanely hard to dodge.

If there isn't a nice wall near you you could always try and make one. Take some pvc pipe and cut the dimensions and then find an old net to fasten it to. I have seen people do it before and it is a good temporary fix

I went to Archbischop Spalding High School, so I am content now.

Also, if you have a bunch of balls for shooting practice use a baseball backstop. you can mark corners on the fence and if you miss you don't have to chase the ball (or in the case of the wall, duck and dodge the rebound)
