  • Forward Falcons | Vii
    forward falcons | vii Preface For much of the 19th and 20th centuries, the THE BOWLING GREEN LEGACY majority of women’s athletic contests took BGSU was established in 1910 and opened its place within colleges and universities, rather doors to students in 1914. Most of these students than between them. Perhaps it is for this reason were women, and they began to compete in that documentation of collegiate sport has organized sports almost immediately. Two literary traditionally accorded limited attention to clubs, the Wilsonian Society and the Emerson women’s collegiate sport, giving the impression Society, were established in 1914. Soon after, both that it was nonexistent (Gerber, Felshin, Berlin, societies formed women’s basketball teams, and & Wyrick, 1974). One consequence of this practice highly competitive games between the two were has been the misconception that women’s scheduled during the year. Following these early competitive sport emerged in U.S. colleges and athletic endeavors, hundreds of BGSU women universities only after the passage of Title IX of competed in sports such as archery, softball, the Education Amendments of 1972. We hope to baseball, golf, tennis, field hockey, volleyball, rectify this false impression, particularly with fencing, basketball, soccer, bowling, gymnastics, respect to the women’s sport program at Bowling track and field, lacrosse, swimming and diving, Green State University. and synchronized swimming. These athletes, in concert with the coaches and administrators who led them, established and sustained a strong CAC 1980 women’s athletic presence at BGSU, one on which current athletics opportunities for women are built. These pre-Title IX athletes, coaches, and administrators were, in every sense of the term, “forward Falcons.” Although the early BGSU women’s athletics teams were characterized as “clubs,” by the 1960s most of them clearly had become varsity intercollegiate teams.

  • Box Lacrosse - League Rules
    1 Box Lacrosse - League Rules Registration/Organizational The team’s captain/contact must register the team online or in person. Teams may submit scheduling requests at time of registration. We will try to honor scheduling requests whenever possible but they are never guaranteed. Only the team captain/contact can submit a scheduling request. Game times cannot be changed once the full season schedule is released. The team must pay the referee fee in cash prior to each game. Teams that forfeit a game are responsible for paying a forfeit fee (both teams’ referee fees). Zero-tolerance policy: Any verbal or physical abuse towards a referee or any other GoodSports USA staff will not be tolerated. Doing so will result in ejection from the facility and possible suspension. This goes for all players, coaches, and spectators before, during, or after a game. Team Roster All players must be on their team’s roster to play. Teams are recommended to have a minimum of 10 players. Non-rostered players are not permitted to play. Doing so may result in a forfeit loss. A backup goalkeeper is an exception. Any issues with non-rostered players playing for the opposing team need to be brought to the attention of GoodSports staff prior to the game. General Rules The league is played 6v6, five field players and a goalie. Game begins with a face-off in the center circle and four players behind restraining lines. At the whistle, players may leave restraining lines and approach the face-off circle. Players cannot reach in or enter the circle until ball is possessed or the ball leaves the circle.

  • Playing Lacrosse: the Boulder Valley Way
    Playing Lacrosse: The Boulder Valley Way Andrew Davies 2011 edition Playing Lacrosse: The Boulder Valley Way Overview: Over the past several years, Boulder Valley Lacrosse has connected with a number of celebrated coaches and players to improve the process of player development. This manual will synthesize and simplify the various teachings of these well-known figures in the lacrosse world, including Bill Tierney, Josh Sims, Trevor Tierney, and Jamie Munro, for the benefit of our coaches and players. Offensive Philosophy: Boulder Valley Lacrosse teams should employ offenses that encourage players to dodge aggressively and play in a freelance style. Coaches should emphasize individual stick skills, toughness on groundballs, and speed in fast-break transition play. All BVL teams will use the “132” (aka “rotating triangles”) formation as their standard offensive setup, because it encourages off-ball movement and proper spacing. Odd-man situations should be practiced regularly, as these are the primary source of scoring opportunities in youth lacrosse. Teams may have a few set plays as a complement to their offense, but players should be primarily encouraged to play in the “Fun and Gun” style of lacrosse. We have no interest in creating “robots” in BVL, but rather players who understand how to move off-ball without sideline direction in order to generate shots on goal. Defensive Philosophy: All BVL teams will use an aggressive man to man defense which relies upon an early slide from the crease, and constant involvement from all seven defensive players. This style of defense is commonly known as the legendary “Princeton” defense devised by Bill Tierney.

  • Basic Rules for Girls Field Lacrosse
    Basic Rules for Girls Field Lacrosse Girl's/Women's Field Lacrosse is a quick, free flowing game which is easy to understand and watch. The game is played on a field 100m x 55m with 12 players aside on the field. A full roster is 16­20 players. Girl's/Women's Lacrosse is a non ­ contact sport. There is no aggressive checking with the stick or the body. This results in a game which has added emphasis on a fast paced, polished game, centred on ball movement. Protective equipment is virtually non existent, making the game not only a fast, enjoyable game to play, but an economical one too. A lacrosse stick and mouth guard are all you need to play. • Checking: There is no body checking in women's. A women's stick can be "checked" or hit while the player is carrying the ball. Checks across the body, near the face, toward the head, and "out of control" checks are illegal. • Timing: Women's lacrosse is played in two halves, usually twenty five minutes each. The clock is stopped after a goal, for an injury, some penalties (yellow and red cards) and on every whistle blow during the last two minutes of each half. • Penalties: Penalty discipline depends where the players are on the field. If a penalty is committed in the mid field, the fouling player must stand four meters behind the player she fouled. If it occurred inside the eight meter arc near the goal, the fouled player will receive a free position shot.
