Lacrosse deserves an olympic place

Like i said before lacrosse is one of the most physically taxing sports in the world. Lacrosse players have to train incredibely hard just to play in D1 in college. If players have to put in so much work into a sport then it has to be in deserves to be in the olympics. Sports like table tennis and archery don't demand that much out of you, training for these sports are all repetition, for example in archery shooting for the bullseye 100 times everyday will make you hit the bullseye almost everytime you shoot. However, lacrosse you have to train your physical strength, your speed, your agility, and your endurance. This means running every other day, weightlifting everyday, and doing speed and agility drills. When you think thats already tough enough, you have to train your stick skills too, i mean practicing throwing, catching, dodging, shooting, throwing fakes, and most importantly improving your off-hand (putting your stick and your non-dominant hand). Paul Rabil, who hold the fastest shot in lacrosse said, " In college I could shoot the ball a couple pennies over a dollar, but nowhere near towards the 110mph threshold... now I do get in some serious shooting every day or so, and stuff like lifting and yoga has helped me with power and torque" (Fanbase.com)This is all alot of hard work that requires dedication, why not reward the truly dedicated by giving them a chance to compete for the gold?
