Today, we honor the Indigenous peoples whose traditions, culture, and resilience shaped so much of the world we know — including the origins of lacrosse. 🥍 Long before it became the fast-paced sport we know today, lacrosse was known as The Creator’s Game, played by Native nations like the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), Cherokee, and others. It was more than competition — it was spiritual, a way to bring communities together, to heal, and to honor the Creator. As we capture the energy and heart of modern lacrosse, it’s important to remember and respect where it began. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #TheCreatorsGame #LacrosseRoots #RespectTheGame #HistoryOfLacrosse #HoyaYouthLacrosse #historymatters
