Updated February 13, 2017. If you've ever had flea bites, you've probably wondered whether fleas can live on people. The good news is fleas don't live on people (literally on our bodies), with very few exceptions. The bad news is fleas can and will inhabit human dwellings, even in the absence of pets.
The anatomy of your lacrosse stick includes a scoop at the uppermost tip, a ball-stop and sidewall for control, a throat that connects the head to the handle and a pocket. Lacrosse heads come with either a traditional woven pocket or a mesh pocketâremember, heads can be purchased strung or unstrung.
Lacrosse is a contact team sport played between two teams using a small rubber ball (62.8â64.77 mm (2.472â2.550 in), 140â147 g (4.9â5.2 oz)) and a long-handled stick called a crosse or lacrosse stick. The men's version is considered as a rough sport, with slashes and intense checks to the stick and body. The head of the lacrosse stick is strung with loose mesh designed to catch and hold the lacrosse ball. There are many different ways to put mesh on the head of the stick, also known as stringing the stick.. Offensively, the objective of the game is to score by shooting the ball into an opponent's goal past the goalie, using the lacrosse stick to catch, cradle, and pass the ball to do so.
