It's a very interesting sport. It is played with a stick with netting at the end of it. The netting is used to throw and scoop the ball up to either pass or throw in a goal. Considered America's first sport. It was first played by Native Americans. It was often played to prepare men for war or even settle conflicts between tribes. There could be anywhere from a few to a hundred players on each side. The play of field could be anywhere from 500 yards to several miles long.
In my opinion, lacrosse has gotten softer since Europeans first picked it up from the indians. Unlike how the indians played it, in modern lacrosse, a helmet, pads, and gloves are weared. I think the safety equipment is unnecessary. It is physical, but you aren't running full speed into someone like in football.

Get the lacrosse mug.The national sport of Canada, which is very popular in both Canada, USA, and the UK. It's the best sport ever - there are lots of rules (but fortunately not the kind that will stop you damaging somebody).
One of the most hardcore, badass games ever invented (so long as it's full contact), it's easily at least as violent as rugby, ice hockey or american football. It's a game for real men.
Lacrosse is played in the UK by boys and girls, due to a recent craze emerging especially around Manchester.
UK male Lacrosse is basically the same as US Lacrosse, with the same rules and full contact.
UK girls' Lacrosse does now have contact but only stick checking is allowed. Only Mixed Lacrosse is non-contact, in case the guys decapitate the girls.

Lacrosse is f**king hardcore dude. If you haven't heard of it, go play baseball with the pussies.
US Boys - full contact, badass game
UK Boys - full contact, same badass game
UK Girls - a little bit of contact, not as badass
UK Mixed - no contact.yawn.

The best sport ever. A sport that takes weeks and weeks of conditioning. A sport in which you break faces (I play high school, WOMENS lacrosse..wussy boys with helmets.) and a sport that gives you new family members.
Girls one: Did you see those girls running around in short kilts?! What wierd lacrosse people!
Girl two: no but I saw that one girl get a yellow (not red) card for breaking a girls nose.
