    4th ESO E
    1. ORIGIN AND HISTORY
    Lacrosse's origins can be traced back to Native
    Americans.
    Since there was only one ball, the players
    concentrated on injuring the opponent with their
    stick. Sometimes the game could go on for days.
    The tribes that played lacrosse did so on fields
    hundreds of feet away. They used their wooden
    sticks to pick up and throw the ball or to hit their
    rivals. The goal was to get the ball to the designated
    area. The team that managed to move the ball to the
    other end won the game.
    For the tribes who played it, lacrosse was a sacred
    sport, it was "The Creator's Game." These annual
    matches were authentic battles in which they settled
    all the debts that they had during the year with the
    rival tribe.
    2. LACROSSE'S
    CLASSIFICATION
    According to its origin, it
    is an adaptation of
    traditional sports.

    Invasion: within these sports


    you have to put your mobile
    inside the rival goal more
    times than the opposite.
    3. GAME RULES
    There are 10 players allowed on the
    field: 3 attackers, 3 intermediaries,
    3 defenders and 1 goalkeeper.
    For every goal in lacrosse, the
    scoring team receives one point.
    There can be a maximum of 4 long
    sticks on the field per team.
    A lacrosse ball cannot be touched
    by a player's hand except by the
    goalie.
    No opposing player may come into
    contact with the goalkeeper when
    the goalkeeper is in the goal area.
    Lacrosse penalties vary by age.
    4. LACROSSE ASPECTS

    Lacrosse is a coeducational sport


    because it includes both genders.
    In practice, concentration, agility
    and strategy skills are developed,
    useful for other areas such as work
    or academia. Regarding the
    physical benefits, we can highlight
    the improvement in endurance and
    cardiovascular health, in addition to
    reducing the risk of overweight and
    obesity.
