I joined the Lacrosse team in orientation week and have been playing for the University of Adelaide for 2 months.
Playing lacrosse has been a great way for me to meet people and make friends in Adelaide. It has also helped me become a confident speaker of English because I’ve had to speak in English to my team mates. Training is twice a week, which is perfect because it doesn’t interfere with my studies.
