Lacrosse is steeped in tradition, and though today's participants use sticks of plastic and titanium rather than wood, the lacrosse stick symbolizes the historical significance of the game.
The game, like the stick itself, was developed by North American Indians as early as the15th century. Indians played the game not only for recreation, but also to settle tribal disputes and to toughen warriors for fighting.
Since 1834, lacrosse has evolved from the Indians �baggataway� into today�s modern team sport in which players use a �crosse� (netted stick) to throw or bat a ball into a goal.
