Lacrosse is awesome! Yes there is a decent amount of running involved in lacrosse but u won't even notice how much you are running after the first week or two because you will be concentrating on passes and shots and stuff like that all you have to do is be able to "walk and chew gum" and you will be set lol

Hey Im 13 and I play lacrosse. Ive been playing for two years now and its ALOT of fun. I dont know about where you live, but in my town I play with a really cool group of girls. Yes, it does require alot of running(depending on the size of your field) but it pays off with the excersice and fun that you get from it. The downside is that its VERY hard (at least it was for me) to learn all of the rules. It takes awhile, but it really grows on ya.

Is it hard? Yes, it is. I mean, it isn't EXTREMELY hard, but it takes practice.
It isn't easy catching the ball; I messed up a LOT before I got it.
Yeah, it requires quite a bit of running. Not only that, it requires concentration; you have to make sure you're cradling the ball in the stick the right way while you run.
Be warned: Although women's lacrosse isn't a contact sport (You aren't allowed to hit opponents with your stick, like you can in men's lacrosse), there is the possibility that you can get hit with the stick or even the ball. The balls are made of rubber, and they hurt if you get hit with them. Personally, I've only been hit with one once, during a practice, so it's not something you really need to worry about, but I thought I'd let you know.
Also, be forewarned that men's lacrosse is very different from women's lacrosse. Like I said, men's lacrosse is more of a contact sport while women's isn't. Also, in men's lacrosse, you wear a lot of armor and in women's, you wear a skirt while you play (sometimes, but not always) and you wear a mouth guard and eye protection. The goalie obviously has a different stick and some armor, though.
Take it from me: It's a great sport, it just requires practice and dedication.
