Welcome to Little Miami Lacrosse

Played throughout the world today, the sport of lacrosse is derived from a Native American game of great antiquity. This game required the greatest skill for catching, carrying, and passing a ball using only the basketlike head of the lacrosse stick. Quickness, stamina, and strength were equally important to play the game well. 

The game was loved passionately by the Oneidas and other Haudenosaunee (Iroquois).  Men and women joined together fielding massive teams for entertainment and physical conditioning but as lacrosse was also a religious celebration.
