Great guy, a real shame he's not around any more. Glen was a real fun guy to know, and I'm glad I had the pleasure of playing with him.

...and lots more fun during the day Dave... http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/228007_834809345455_223405574_14854352_3863096_n.jpg http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/229547_834809225695_223405574_14854349_4447337_n.jpg I'd recommend going, am making the trip again this year,...

Can confirm the result was Colchester 4 vs Welwyn 2's 12. Not sure I agree with the comment about a lot of shots from outside though. If my memory is correct the majority of goals came from cuts to the crease a large proportion being from X. Good game though and well reffed. Any more spectacular cr...

Standards down, but as the number of teams go up I guess it will bring in more revenue to the tournament? Maybe in the future you could have a counties champs that feeds into a national champs in a more official way. BNCs could then maybe have Scotland Wales North Counties Top 2 South Counties Top 2...

74.2 A deliberate and excessively violent contact made by a defensive player against an offensive player who has legally or illegally established a pick shall be designated unnecessary roughness. Right, well that's our LDO from 2 years ago proven wrong then :D I did not know that was the rule, ther...

I set a behind goal pick a couple of weeks ago and the the on ball D man saw me and accelerated whist putting his head down from about 5 feet away. Unnecessary roughness? My left shoulder thinks so But I guess therein lies the subjective-ness of the rule. The defender is marking his man, and he mus...

Isn't Jordan McBride Scottish?

high scoring weekend in the prem.... Prem... East 1 is where all the action is ;) Fantastic game to play in. Both squads running 11 players, Reading with only 2 poles (and Tommy "the Machine" Pickford) at the back. First quarter ended 6-5 to Buckhurst Hill, and not a lot in it between the...

For me, it seems like Farsta have the right attitude to initiating this event. * Reaching out to each community to try and find a time when the eventual champions would be available to play. * Asking each community what would happen if their champions didn't want to compete. I don't know who would b...

(Un)Luckily for me I do have the clearance to go on site, and did offer to run sessions for them if needed, but they said they're not doing anything official at the moment and are wrapping it up at the end of the month until next year. Bit of a shame as it would have been quite near, but I've been d...

Return of the London Tournament again?

Thanks Ash,

Got in touch with him in the end, he'd been away on exercise.

I'm based down in Farnborough / Aldershot during the week now and was hoping to get down and train with the Sandhurst guys. The guy I sit next to at work has definitely seen people training lacrosse in the area, but I haven't been able to get in touch yet. I'll try again, but if anyone has any conta...

Depends on your technique, see above

...and whether you plan on winning any

Seconded Eamon. One of the most incredible weekends I've ever experienced. Lacrosse was great, met some quality players with some great attitudes to life and the game. Coaches had some great tips during the games, and really showed how they can influence a team. But as was said, the most amazing thi...

Interested!

Haha,

And so people are aware, most of these "juniors" already play senior level lacrosse for Welwyn with at least 3 of them making regular appearances on the 1st team.

Not in this context I'm afraid.

It refers to the fact that anything we seem to organise turns into a humongous sausage-fest, or wiener-fest as we put it.

That really sucks the fun out of the name having to explain it

The venue for this is a proper box, with shot clock timers and box goals.

Anyone wanting to try out box this is ideal for you.

I can honestly say it's the most fun version of lacrosse I've ever played.

We had them for the Gin and Juice squads at the Worlds.

Contact Snooplax on here to find out where we got them arranged from. He may well be able to get you some printed up.
