Info box: What is lacrosse 

Although lacrosse is considered a fringe sport in Germany, it is widespread in English-speaking countries and has a long tradition. The history of lacrosse begins with the Native Americans, who used the sport as a form of dispute resolution. Today, it is still frequently played in American highschools and will soon become an Olympic sport in 2028. Lacrosse is the fastest ball sport in the world and is played with sticks with nets and a rubber ball. The sport encompasses many variations, including field lacrosse, sixes lacrosse, box lacrosse and indoor lacrosse. It features in films like "Wild Child" or "American Pie". 

The Tübingen Lacrosse Club is a diverse group, with players ranging from beginners to national-level. Club training takes place in parallel with the university sport course. Beyond the weekly training, course participants are invited to team events such as BBQs, WG-parties, cocktail evenings, public viewings, or outdoor swimming in summer. 

The course is designed for beginners: whether you have previous knowledge and want to expand your strategy set, or have never heard of lacrosse before stumbling across it here, we look forward to seeing you on the playing field! 

You don't need to bring any equipment with you, but if you have sport shoes with studs suitable for artificial grass, then feel free to bring them. 

If you have any questions, please write to us, Hazel or Maike (women's lacrosse) and Philipp (men's lacrosse).
