You do realize most of these younger boys teams are just picking up Box Lacrosse for the first time, right? Pretty lame bragging when your '25 YJ LI Swarm team has been practicing Box consistently for how many years now?

Also - how does Box translate to the girls game where most defenders would be called for incidental contact and ball handlers would be called for charging? Teaching these girls to be super aggressive in Box will only lead to more penalties and safety issues when they play outside on Field. Instead of barreling over defenders, maybe learning to play unselfishly by passing the ball and finding space would help them when they play Field. Until then, keep following your Coach around - I wonder if you would have played if his older boys weren't there?
