Did You Know?

The origin of women's lacrosse can be traced back to the Indians of North America, who played a form of the men's game in their preparation for battle.  However, it was not until the mid 19th century that the English first played a unique style of a stick and ball game solely for women.  Competing girls' schools began playing this modern game in the 1860's.  Many of the general rules of play in those first games resemble those used today.
