I would say not. Try looking at an NBA fast break or a running back in the NFL going for a touchdown, not to mention Usain Bolt's feat in the Olympics for a track event.

How do you put on lacrosse head that's too big for the shaft?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If the head fits then you just need an electric drill and put the head on. Once you have the head on, drill a screw into the shaft through the hole while applying pressure on the drill. If the head does not fit, Then put a pot of water on the stove to boil. Once it is boiling, dip the bottom of the head into the boiling water for about 8 seconds and then squeeze it onto the shaft. This worked for me with a metal shaft so you could try it with a wooden shaft. Instead of all this you could go to your local lacrosse shop and ask them to do it but it will cost you $$$.

How do you catch a lacross stick?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Provide a target by placing the pocket of your lacrosse stick just above your shoulder and next to your ear. This is often referred to as the "box" and is the best place to catch a pass. The stick should cross your body, not be off to the side. If your teammate doesn't see you're open call out for the pass. Step 2

Hold your top hand just below the middle of the stick and your lower hand at the bottom. Not all passes will come in at the perfect place so be ready to adjust your stick and hand placement as needed. Step 3

Relax your arms as the ball approaches and allow the stick to "give" a little. The faster the ball is coming at you the more you'll need to lean your stick back to absorb its velocity. This will prevent the ball from bouncing off the pocket. Watch the ball all the way into your pocket before making your next move. Step 4

Cradle the ball as soon as it's in your pocket to secure it, keeping your stick close to your body. When you have possession of the ball be ready to run, pass or shoot immediately.
