I'm not sure which side of this debate is right tbh
on one hand, you would think that the more a kid is on a lacrosse field, the better he or she will become as a lacrosse player.
but something can be said for developing muscles that aren't used as much in lacrosse. if you do the same motion over and over your muscles will adapt and stop growing and getting stronger.
if a kid played basketball, all the leaping and jumping could benefit that player on the lacrosse field.
it could also be beneficial because basketball and lacrosse are so similar. dodge and find the open player. lets say if your a point guard you could be dodging/penetrating more than you would on a lacrosse field. so when you do get on the lax field, you will be that much more comfortable with it.
that's my theory. I mainly like the idea of basketball as an off season sport for lax. winter is a pretty dead season, and the plays are very similar.
I see multi sport All Americans quite a bit |
