DESCRIPTION:
"Not much help." according to NEOhio Observer. I bought this book because I knew absolutely zero about Lacrosse, except that my grandson was now playing on his school team. So I wanted to learn the rules so I could be a knowledgeable fan. Unfortunately, this book does not give you the rules; rather, it provides a broad brush overview. It does tell you how many players are on a team and what their positions are. But, e.g., you never learn (1) how the referee decides to call fouls, or if they do; (2) what specific actions can trigger a p. Panthers fan said NO NOT GET. Bad book it skipped pagesAnd it won't let you read all the pages and it tell you bad info. Just OK Probably a little too basic. Although if you have never played or you have a child just starting and you have no personal experience it will at least get you started. Still recommend it though.
