Purpose: Fun and enjoyable culminating activity, which will provide a basic understanding of what the final product of lacrosse should be like. It will also allow students to use and develop all  their lacrosse skills learnt from previous lessons.

  4. 4)Have a 30 to 60 second time limit for possession.

  5. 5)Not allowed to goal into the crease except for the goaltender.

  6. 6)Score Rule:  shoot into the net.

  7. 7)Start Rule: lacrosse face off.

  8. 8)Restart Rule:  Lacrosse throw in from the side.

  9. 9)Safety Rule: no cross checking or hitting bodies.


Modifications:

- It may be difficult to actually play a 10 vs 10 game, especially with a gr. 8 class, so you can change the number of players on each team.

- Can change the boundaries.

- Can change the size of the net.

- Can still implement a minimum amount passes needed to be made before a team can score.



*However, try to make the game mirror a normal lacrosse game as much as possible even though there will be different problems to deal with. Thus, only make changes that you see fit.
