1000 years of history

Lacrosse is unique by its origins. Also known as the “Creator’s game”, lacrosse has been played by the natives American for more than a thousand years. The game performed important spiritual, social and political functions. In fact, the game was used to prepare the tribes for war, to solve disputes between communities and most importantly it was part of rituals to heal people of the community. Lacrosse has since evolved but it remains true to its origins.
