Space Lacross

When trying to decide on a backstory for a character I realized that there isn't much done with regards to sports in SARP. I found it strange for a bit, but after some thinking I came to see why, mainly with how drastically different the capabilities of races on even the same planet are. But then I had a bit of an idea and was wondering what everyone thought so I'm posting it here.

Pretty much as the title says it's a sci-fi version of lacross, you could use power armors to bring all teh races to a more even performance as well as take the game to a whole new level using 3 dimensions. The baiscs of the game could be similar to lacross for the most part, but instead of normal sticks a modified version of the OI-X3-1a Magic Hand or something similar could be used as the sticks. So you have poles of varying size (based on position) with a graviton projector attached so you can throw and catch a ball around space as you try to score goals. Since military power armors are so different in performance, it could be limited to the Impulse Powered Armor until more civilian armors with similar specs are introduced. Of course modifications to the armors would be allowed but the organization overseeing the sport would make sure everything stays far so that even civilians can compete, and it's not just the military dominating. This could even be sponsored by some of the companies that don't have any specific national ties so that the sport can be multinational and we can have an intergalactic tournament.
 
For fun, the all very different species of 188604 played volleyball! There were super soldiers, Neko, Iromakuanhe, I'ee, a Freespacer referee, and all sorts of shenanigans! It was pretty fun and one way to get a bunch of different species together for a game!
 
I think wes talked about this but ok this sounds fun. I love lacrosse and was a favorite sport growing up so just wondering if this got created? Also I think it would be neat just seeing even on a news article in the background talking about this sport and other created sports for the setting.
