What math is used in the sport of lacrosse?

Answer 1

Most Lacrosse players are professionals in something other than sports (to echo the NCAA advertisement). Even those who are lucky & talented enough to play professionally in either the Major League Lacrosse or National Lacrosse League don't earn enough money from their playing to pay the bills (NLL average $14,000 US). So all those guys have day jobs, from being firefighters who need math to calculate how much a set of hoses on their trucks weigh to stockbrokers calculating dividends per share for their clients. Everyone uses math!

Answer 2

Geometry!

The goalie needs to know angles so they can block the shot. And you need to know how much you need to follow through with your pass to make it accurate or to get it over other players heads.

Answer 3

When they shoot the puck they use math to see if it will go in the goal

Answer 4

I don't think so because lacrosse is a sport so math doesn't really have anything to do with it, unless you are the score keeper.

Answer 5

It's not.
