History of lacrosse


The history of lacrosse was that the Native Americans invented lacrosse before explorers arrived. Lacrosse is the oldest known athletic game in North America.

Equipment


In girls’ lacrosse you must have a girls’ lacrosse stick and a lacrosse face guard but a lot of people call the face guard goggles because they only cover your eyes and some of them cover your nose too. In girls’ lacrosse you will also need to have a mouth guard so if the ball hits your mouth, it won’t knock out all your teeth.
