Awesome…Let’s get this done. I’ve been stringing my own sticks since about 1985, and it wasn’t easy to get materials back then..would usually buy a new strung head and take it apart and re-string. With the availability of good materials today it should be commonplace for kids to string their own sticks. Like you, I think it’s esential to being a “complete” Lacrosse player to know how to string and as I first learned to play it really helped me to understand how the stick moves the ball…and on top of that, it was always fun. And as goofy as it sounds I always felt more of a “connection” with the sticks I strung. Good luck with the project and if I can help when you are down here in Austin, let me know.
Thanks so much Mark! I appreciate the support. That’s actually a really good point that I never thought of – the supply of stringing materials as another factor for players not stringing their own sticks.
I certainly will let you know! I hope to get something set up there for the spring. Thanks agan!
This is my son’s 2nd year playing LAX and I have just stumbled on your site and am very interested in finding out more about the Personal Pocket and Stringing Consultation and/or the Teach Your Team to String Mesh Workshop. We are in Northern Va and I wish I had known about this back in February, when you were in McLean! I would love to be kept informed if you do, in fact, decide to come back to Va. I’m extremely interested in reading your book when it is released – as my son has grown and matured as a person due, in a large part, to his desire to improve his LAX game and having to look within himself and discover things about himself in order to do that. Much luck with and appreciation for your project!!
I love The Buffalo and Minnesota jerseys. I miss the Titans.
Sorry for the delay man. I’m just stupid swamped and reading (skimming) your emails now

You need to set something up in Charlottesville, Virginia next time.
I could do that soon! My sister lives there. Could you hook me into someone who knows the boy’s scene? Cheers.!
