In my game last friday, I rolled my ankle, fracturing my fibula. Look at the picture if you don't know what it is.

Since it's a stress fracture, there's not much doctors can do, I have to wait 2 weeks before getting x-rayed again. The fracture didn't appear on the x-ray the first time, since it's on the growth plate. In two weeks, if it doesn't show up, I can return for the last 3 days of the season. If it shows up, I've got at least another 2 weeks on crutches.

So, what can I do that doesn't really involve walking to keep my stick skills up? I want to be really good for the summer league, but going 3 to 4 weeks without being able to use my stick would kill me.

That truly sucks. I know how hard it is not playing.

Can you put any pressure on that leg? If not, you can practice quick passes agaisnt a wall or something.
