History of Lacrosse and Lincoln Lacrosse
Club
■ Lacrosse or variations played by Native Americas, especially tribes throughout Upstate NY,
  Great Lakes, Canada
     –   Known as ”The Medicine Game”
■ One of the oldest Team Sports in North America
■ Game could last days, involve 1000’s of participants, goals could be 500 yards to miles apart
■ Lincoln Lacrosse Club formed in 1999
     –   Lacrosse is “Club” sport in Oregon, not a “PIL” sport
     –   Approximately 110 athletes, Grades 1-12
     –   Lincoln HS plays in the Columbia Conference
         ■   Central Catholic, Grant, Hood River, OES, Ida B. Wells –formerly Wilson
     –   Lincoln Varsity team was Oregon State Champion in 2008, 2010, 2011 and again in 2012

                                                                                           2

Basics of the Game
■ Offense uses movement, passing, shooting, dodging to score goals
■ Game is played in each half of the field as a 6 on 6 + a goalie (half field set – 3 Middies, 3
  Attack vs 3 Middies, 3 Defense, 1 Goalie)
■ Can only have 6 players on the offensive side of field at a time
■ Play is usually run by 4 quarters or 2 halfs
■ Play begins with a face off at the center and resumes with a face off after each score
  (technically one team may possess the ball the entire game)
■ Players can move behind the goal (usually a great place to attack the goal from) – known
  as the X
■ Grades 3/4: 6v6 (w/ Goalie) – shortened cross-field
■ Grades 1/2: 3v3, 4v4, 6v6 (no Goalie) – shortened cross-field, smaller goal

                                                                                          3

Objectives and Concepts
■ Lacrosse uses motion and off-ball movement to create good shot opportunities (motion is
  similar to that of basketball)
■ Fastest game on two feet – can’t be fast if standing still!
■ Cuts and dodges create space for passing, receiving, or to free hand space for a shot
■ Transition offense or defense is important in lacrosse (fast breaks)
■ Team that wins the most ground balls, and face offs – usually will win the game
■ Cutting, pick and rolls, give and go, and dodges on and away from ball create confusion for
  the defense and allow the offense to attack.
■ Defense uses man to man or zone defenses
