Adding More Sports

Edit src/data/seedData.js:

1. Add the sport to SPORTS:

lacrosse: { id: 'lacrosse', name: 'Lacrosse', emoji: '🥍', color: '#facc15' },

2. Add stat definitions to SPORT_STATS_DEFS:

lacrosse: [
  { key: 'position', label: 'Position', type: 'text' },
  { key: 'goals', label: 'Goals', type: 'number' },
  // ...
],

3. Add positions to the positions object in Register.jsx.

4. Optionally add seed data generation for the new sport in seedData.js.
