No joke, my son told me a month ago that he is not interested in lacrosse anymore. He was the type of kid walking around with his fiddle stick all the time, I signed him up for clinics, privates and of coarse travel. I thought i was helping him but turns out that I was forcing him. He still wants to play PAL but as far as the other stuff, no go. So if you see a kid playing street/deck hockey (new love) wearing lacrosse gear and a big smile, that's him.
