What our players say
Lacrosse is my way to vent after a busy day at work. When I have my gear on, standing on the field and practice starts, I am all fired up. The team is my second family.
I have always enjoyed being underestimated. Lacrosse is challenging and not for the faint of heart. It keeps me both mentally and physically fit. Living as an ex-pat in Nuremberg is not always easy but Lacrosse keeps me grounded.
