Lacrosse – the Ancient Game


Lacrosse is getting a fresh look with the publication of “Lacrosse – the Ancient Game.” Written by Jim Calder, Ron Fletcher and Delmor Jacobs, the book has a forward by lacrosse legend Gary Gait. Gait writes: “Readers of this book will learn about the game’s growth and expansion from an exclusively Native American tradition to a truly international sport.” The book is divided into three chapters: The Oral Tradition; A Recorded History; and The Stickmaker. In addition the book is handsomely illustrated by Onondaga Artist Arnold Jacobs and David Craig.

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.
