its pretty easy to learn too, at least it was for me
if you can run well, they normally will put yhou on the team, because they can teach you the skills, but you need to have the athleticnes, which you seem to have..
to train, i would just basically buy a lax stick, and find a wall like a brick wall and just practice aggainst that. you should also run a lot.
you can also do like stick tricks, such as throw the ball up and catch it on the other side, because stick tricks improve your hand-eye coordination. there are soo many stick tricks you can do, and if you want to know any more just ask me in my inbox because theres too many to list here.
lax is SO fun, i would really suggest you do it! =] [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

it will take a bit for you to progress at it, but being on a team will help and consider going to a day camp just to get it going. hope i helped. message me is you need anymore help! [ Sara6391's advice column | Ask Sara6391 A Question ]
