Lacrosse Terminology

After just reading the rule book from cover to cover for the first time, I have to agree that lacrosse could benefit by borrowing some of the more commonly known terms used in other sports. I realize that this would go against all traditions of the game, but if the powers that be really want lacrosse to grow, it has to first be understood by those not familiar with the game. Using terminology consistent with the more popular sports would be a good first step.

Read the chapter in the rule book regarding holding. That is enough to confuse anyone!
