Do many schools play Lacrosse these days, especially state schools?

As the title says, really
I played lacrosse at my state GS and still miss it I still have my old wooden stick and black boots lol!
It wasn't all that common for state schools to play back in my day and because of that, we always had to travel hours and hours to play other teams. Nine times out of ten, it was always a private/indie school we played against.
Just intrigued to see if it's still played in general.

Ahh! they play DD's sixth former's occasionally. She went along to watch the last match against them (too small to play) and came home most disgruntled that the Essex Uni captain had asked if she was the team mascot!
I will have to ask her about the padding.

DD is doing it this term (yr9) in her state GS - its with the plastic 'pop' sticks which she thinks are supposed to make scooping up easier
