It's up to 1,900 now. But I was told this petition was written and posted by an rising 10th grade Face off student, not an MLL player, college student, or parent. Read the petition, the counters he presents, supporting safety facts. Read it, you might
have a different opinion.

The ones who just say get rid of the face off all together might want to take a look back to 1979 when they tried that, It failed. Badly and was reinstated within the year.

Face Off men unite!! spread the word:


LOL - there are 319,000,000 people in the USA and 1,212 have signed the petition, I would say you are in the minority and the true majority don't really care.

But, to bring more awareness to your cause I nominate you to take the FOGO ice bucket challenge, dump a bucket of ice water over your head, if your head gets stuck in the ice bucket it is an illegal procedure and you will be forced to teach you kid how to play real lacrosse and not fogo wrestlemania lacrosse, you have 24 hours to accept this challenge and about 7 months to teach your kid how to play lacrosse.....good luck


Your son must go to Syracuse! That explains your negativity. You illustrated one important point. The game needs to grow, that's best for all of us. Citing the number of people in the US is meaningless since most of them don't even know what lax is. Keeping the most exciting part of the game intact only benefits the sport moving forward. The negativity only comes from those lacking a good face off man on their team, or out of frustration because they have not been able to perform well.
