Strength & Conditioning Coach Australian Men's Lacrosse Team 0412 415 257 benhitchins@bigpond.com.au Re: preparation for the 2010 World Lacrosse Championships (this info is also downloadable from forms and downloads) G'day all. If you have aspirations to be the best in the world in 2010 then now is the time to start getting in shape. It generally takes three years of lifting weights to reach your peak muscle strength so you need to get into the gym today. A gym work out utilises the same energy systems that we use in lacrosse because it is made up of short intense efforts and brief recovery periods. Muscle strength is also the foundation for speed, agility, explosive power, endurance, recovery etc. Lifting weights is the key to evolving from a good player to an elite athlete. US opportunity
Wednesday, 16th July 2008
I have been aware that some of the players in Australia have come over to the US to play at the collegiate level. You have extremely talented players and I would like to try and give them the opportunity to play here in the US.

The Warrior Amonte has not been approved for International use, is approved in the USA only. It is illegal for nationals and world cup. Legality of Sticks
Wednesday, 14th November 2007
Although deBeer states on its website that the Essence head and the TOS bent shaft are legal for the IFWLA game, they have not been approved by the RIH Lab. The head with the shaft attached does not meet IFWLA Crosse specifications nor does the IFWLA rule currently allow bent shafts. The deBeer Essence is NOT LEGAL for IFWLA play! there are problems with both the head and shaft; the first being that the shaft is currently bent and not legal according to IFWLA rules. Only the old Apex and Impulse are currently legal for IFWLA play. The STX head with the bent shaft is not legal either. 2010 Australian Men's Senior Team
