much more than i expected.......the Lacrosse unit is a huge hit!
I really went out of my comfort zone and tried a sport new to Mabry's PE program, and have really enjoyed learning a really fun and exciting sport!
Thanks go out to Coach Banik & Coach Rowley from the JTL, who donated the equipment and  were able to assist me in some instruction!
Some of our very own Mabry kids have been helping me out as well..thanks for being patient teaching an old dog new tricks!
Karina, Kara, Maddie, Jessica, Carly, Zoe, Peter, JB, Cameron, Spencer, Sam, Bridger, Garrett, Matt, Tyler, Casey, and many more helped my students and I to learn the sport of Lacrosse.

We have learned so much in a little bit of time, from basic offensive and defensive positions, to passing, catching, cradling, and shooting!

Check out these pics from the unit!

Coach Banik demonstrates how to scoop up a ground ball.

Michael A. shows good passing form.

Nick T. learns some passing skills.

Kimmy & Katie watch some LAX demonstrations.
