First off, relax. Lacrosse is HUGE amounts of fun!!! ( =
Second, pay attention. You are not the only one who is having their first practice. Your coach will be giving out vital info as will the more experienced players on the team. Watch what they do, pay attention to instructions and commit things to memory.
Third, play hard. Be prepared to run, sweat, fall, trip, stretch and yes - bleed. Lacrosse isn't for wimps, you have to be ready to take the hit and give it back! Don't be afraid of other players, no one is going to cause an injury to their own teammate. If you show that you have no fear, other players will fear YOU and make your life easier.
Fourth, wear your safety gear. Your mouth guard is your friend. Be ready to pick it up out of the dirt and put it back in your mouth. Yum! If they give out goggles, wear them. Gloves are great to help with grip and keep hands limber and protected during colder games/practices. Wear good cleats and good running shoes. Put your hair up or keep it out of the way.
Fifth, do your drills with all of your heart! Put yourself in there and don't just go through the motions. Show a true desire to learn and volunteer to do things first. If you go first and you screw up, no one will rmemeber and you will help everyone else as well as yourself. You will also look good to your coach because you are willing to step up.
Sixth, learn the game. Study the plays and the field positions and know them. Quiz yourself and your teammates and always ALWAYS know your position! Learn the rules and penalties associated with violating them. Learn about equipment and skills and drills and help other people out with the info you gain.
Seventh, check out www.uslacrosse.org for all the info you need and www.girlslacrossegear.com for all the latest in gear!
GOOD LUCK!!!
