In August 1885 a paddock at Noarlunga hosted the first lacrosse match ever played in South Australia, when a team of country footballers who had never seen the game took on the founding Adelaide club. The Noarlunga Lacrosse Club went on to host an intercolonial fixture against Victoria, lapsed for years, and revived under its own veterans in the 1890s.

the #Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) explicitly called their game ( #lacrosse) "little brother of war"
a conscious purposeful substitute for war
the function of sport is to release physical aggression harmlessly
however for the Haudenosaunee, games would range over vast distances and last for days. so sometimes, in the woods, someone would come back bloodied, or not at all. a way of settling scores (rather than war) that was not encouraged, but was understood to be part of the game

no argument
i would say though that humanity is extremely tribal
in many respects the outlet of #sports competitions between nations serves as a harmless release valve for what otherwise would be bloodshed and #war
i live in western new york
the indigenous people here have a sport: #lacrosse
their name for lacrosse is "little brother of war"
because the #Haudenosaunee (aka #Iroquois) recognize sports competitions relieve animosities that would otherwise result in real war

Does anyone know the #NECpride #NCAA #college #sports tie-breaking procedure for Men's #Lacrosse tournament qualification?

A cool local news story from #WesternNY for you:
"#Rochester Knighthawks purchased by #Seneca Nation"
So what?
The #lacrosse team was in danger of being shut down
The #Haudenosaunee aka #Iroquois, including the Seneca, invented lacrosse
They called lacrosse "little brother of war" because games were a diplomatic way to resolve disputes without all out war
"Lacrosse is part of our culture and Rochester is part of our ancestral home"

Very proud of my niece, Mason Whitmore, and the #VCU Women’s #Lacrosse team for their victory against #NCAA Division I adversary #Richmond. It was the #VCURams’ first victory against their crosstown rivals in the nine-year history of the program. https://vcuathletics.com/news/2024/4/20/womens-lacrosse-vcu-downs-richmond-on-senior-day-9-7.aspx
Mason notched the tying goal in the third quarter, and the team’s official Instagram play-by-play story featured her when they posted the final score.
