It s The World s Oldest Sport With Native American Roots: Everything You Need To Know

Apr.10.2021 Long before the first European thought of colonizing North America, northeastern Indigenous tribes along the New York-Canadian border played a game they called stickball. As one of the first Europeans to meet with the Iroquois people in the early 1600s, French missionary Jean de Brebeuf watched games, and later referred to the sport as crosse when telling others about it. The name stuck, and today we know it as lacrosse. While it long remained a popular sport with northeastern Native Americans, today, Americans of all backgrounds enjoy playing the sport, which has a loyal following on both college and professional levels.
