Good general resource 19 Sep 2009
By Alan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
It is a good general resource for people who know a little something about lacrosse and need some ideas on how to coach kids to play it.

It might not be as useful in those parts of the country where lacrosse is growing and the coaches are not that experienced. For example, there aren't really good pictures/explanations of how to cradle, pass, shoot, etc.
Good for beginners 28 Jun 2011
By rnwilcox - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is good if you want to learn both boy's and girl's lacrosse. I already knew men's lacrosse so it was helpful to use it to compare to women's lacrosse. Good for a beginner or someone familiar with the sport
