Lacrosse players in Munich

People don't play Lacrosse here in Munich, do they?

No.

Well, OK, yes, they might actually - a quick Google on Lacrosse München brings up shed loads of hits - here's one: www.citysports.de / muenchen / lacrosse

There is one Lacrosse team here in Munich but they're horrible...not anywhere near Colin Doyle style lacrosse.

MatchNL, fellow NYer here (downstate - White Plains specifically). I used to play and would like to get back into it. No stick though...

More important than the sissy college field game, Calgary beat Buffalo for the NLL Pro(ie. arena) title. Thats the only lacrosse title that counts...well that and the Mann Cup.

Grew up in rural Illinois, where LAX is a foreign concept at the high school level. Since living on the East Coast, though, I've become interested in the sport. Bought myself a short stick and some balls...hahaha...and practiced for several months playing "catch" by tossing the ball against a brick wall and catching it on the rebound. I had a few buddies tell me they used to play, but none ever had the time or inclination to participate in my sad little ritual and I haven't been able to find any leagues out here willing to put up with a 25-year old beginner.

I'd love to learn and I could even pack an extra stick or two (DW), if there is some interest from others. I'm not sure I want to drag all the pads and the like over, though.

YES, there is a Lacrosse team in Munich!!!

Actually, there are two.

And we aren't that bad... of course German club Lacrosse is not going to measure up to US college, or even good US High school, but the guys are cool and the game is still fun.

I am currently the president of the team and we are always looking for new players!! If anyone is interested, let me know!

We have extra equipment and always have people learning

Also if anyone who played is intersted in coaching, we are looking for one!

Sorry that our website sucks so bad... am working on it!

so, reviving a pretty old thread here, but is anyone interested in playing a bit once it gets warmer-- possibly in the englisch gardens or another central location?

I dont mind playing guys or girls rules, I have a couple balls and two (girls) sticks with me here.

We will be starting to practice outside again once the snow is gone. If anybody is interested - you are more than welcome to join us.
(Wednesday and Sunday evenings at the HC Wacker, between Harras and Brudermühlstraße)

And if you don't have your own stick - don't worry, there are always a coulpe of extra ones.

Cheers,
Sascha
