  • A BRIEF HISTORY of the LACROSSE STICK the Following
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE LACROSSE STICK The following are extracts from “Tewaarathon” by the North American Indian Travelling College and “A History of the Western Australian Lacrosse Assn” by Ian Toy Many centuries before the white man set foot on the North American continent, the native people were given the gift of lacrosse from the Creator. The original people of North America had names for the game of “Lacrosse”. Among the Algonquins (Southern Quebec and eastern Ontario) it was “Baggataway”, to the Iroquois or Six Nations (Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, Seneca & Tuscarora) it was “Tewaarathon”. To the early French settlers the stick reminded them of the Bishop’s crozier or croisse in French, so they named it “La Crosse”. Because each nation had different resources available to them, the kind of stick that was used and, consequently, the kind of game that was played, varied, with each fashioning their own version of the Creator’s game. Before the white man, lacrosse stick making was widespread among the Mohawks who settled at Akwesasne (Akwesasne is a region which includes part of what is now New York upstate and Ontario, as well as Cornwall Island and other islands in the St Lawrence River) in the St. Lawrence River Valley. Lacrosse sticks were produced in several other Indian settlements, such as Caughnawaga, but because of the abundance of hickory, the best suited wood to make lacrosse sticks, stick making became centred at Akwesasne. Prior to the white man the manufacture of lacrosse sticks was characterized as a cooperative family endeavour. There was and still is an entire year’s time involved in making a lacrosse stick and the various stages of stick making had a definite seasonal relationship.

  • Lacrosse Sticks
    Deyohahá:ge: Indigenous Knowledge Centre Hodinohso:ni Art Lesson #8 Lacrosse Sticks Is that a Lacrosse Stick or Snowshoe? This photo shows a man holding a lacrosse stick which has a highly carved handle. The old style lacrosse sticks were called “bats” because they had a wide, long netting that was used to hit the lacrosse ball and throw if forward. They did not have the same kind of “pocket” like sticks to day, so it was more difficult to carry the ball in the “racket.” Notice that the netting, made of rawhide, is about three feet in length. The size of this netting changes through time. Lacrosse Sticks 1 Deyohahá:ge: Indigenous Knowledge Centre Hodinohso:ni Art Lesson #8 The short handle of this lacrosse stick is elaborately carved. It is difficult to see the detail on the enlarged photos, however, it is very similar to a carved lacrosse stick in the collections of the University Museum of Philadelphia. We can see two hands shaking as a gesture of friendship. There is a carved band with the image of a deer, symbolizing fleetness of foot. At the end is a hand holding a ball. Oren Lyons, Onondaga faithkeeper and Lacrosse Hall of Famer, believes that this symbolizes the medicine origins of the game. The ball, going back and forth, is like a form of medicine. Lacrosse Sticks 2 Deyohahá:ge: Indigenous Knowledge Centre Hodinohso:ni Art Lesson #8 This Mohawk team carries the kind of lacrosse stick seen above. Carving on the handle was thought to improve the grip.
