The Wall Ball Challenge has been developed by several towns and clubs in order to help improved players skills. Laxachussetts is famous for their challenge. Our challenge is based on the combination of all these challanges.
In order to become a better lacrosse player, all athletes need to practice throwing and catching skills. Practice makes perfect or as Laxachussets says "Perfect Pratice Makes Perfect"
Below are the challenges by grade. The ball cannot be dropped.
