WHAT IS WALL BALL?

Great stick skills (passing and catching) are fundamental to playing lacrosse.   Ground balls, which frequently cause turnovers, are often caused by a bad pass or a failed catch.

One of the best ways to improve stick skills is by playing Wall Ball.  The repetitive passing and catching with the wall teaches your body and reflexes the best way to handle your stick.

Wall Ball is best explained by watching a quick video.   Click here for a great demonstration.
