Women's lacrosse is one of the fastest-growing sports in the United
States. As stick technology advances, athleticism increases, and
rules and regulations adapt, even the most experienced players and
coaches need to keep current on all aspects of the game. Janine
Tucker, head women's lacrosse coach at the Johns Hopkins
University, and Maryalice Yakutchik, a writer and former lacrosse
player, here supply the ultimate guide to women's lacrosse.
Each chapter provides a detailed explanation of a specific skill
or technique, illustrated with easy-to-read instructional diagrams
and photographs. Coach Tucker begins with lacrosse survival skills
-- throwing, catching, cradling, and scooping ground balls -- and
then moves on to more advanced techniques, such as precise
checking, fast footwork, correct stick and body position, deceptive
shooting, and quick dodges. Chapters on cutting-edge offensive and
defensive strategy, as well as specialized skills such as
goal-tending and the draw, will get any team ready to hit the
field.
For young women who want to play at the college level, the
concluding chapter on recruiting offers a timeline; testimony from
players, parents, and college coaches who have been through the
process; and a sample rA(c)sumA(c).
