To be clear lacrosse isn’t a “national” sport, it’s a regional sport. Lacrosse is a sport for the well to do, don’t believe that, check the rosters on the “elite” teams and follow up with the blue collar or inner city athletes. How many?There is a presence in other parts of the US and Canada but it is minimal. ESPN shows more college softball than lacrosse. Very few people watch the games on July 4, they have better things to do. No I don’t remember who won a kids lacrosse championship 4 years ago, neither does most of the World. Good luck this season, let the kids enjoy the games, that’s the relevant part.
