Download or read book Lacrosse written by Donald M. Fisher and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2002-03-14 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North America's Indian peoples have always viewed competitive sport as something more than a pastime. The northeastern Indians' ball-and-stick game that would become lacrosse served both symbolic and practical functions—preparing young men for war, providing an arena for tribes to strengthen alliances or settle disputes, and reinforcing religious beliefs and cultural cohesion. Today a multimillion-dollar industry, lacrosse is played by colleges and high schools, amateur clubs, and two professional leagues. In Lacrosse: A History of the Game, Donald M. Fisher traces the evolution of the sport from the pre-colonial era to the founding in 2001 of a professional outdoor league—Major League Lacrosse—told through the stories of the people behind each step in lacrosse's development: Canadian dentist George Beers, the father of the modern game; Rosabelle Sinclair, who played a large role in the 1950s reinforcing the feminine qualities of the women's game; "Father Bill" Schmeisser, the Johns Hopkins University coach who worked tirelessly to popularize lacrosse in Baltimore; Syracuse coach Laurie Cox, who was to lacrosse what Yale's Walter Camp was to football; 1960s Indian star Gaylord Powless, who endured racist taunts both on and off the field; Oren Lyons and Wes Patterson, who founded the inter-reservation Iroquois Nationals in 1983; and Gary and Paul Gait, the Canadian twins who were All-Americans at Syracuse University and have dominated the sport for the past decade. Throughout, Fisher focuses on lacrosse as contested ground. Competing cultural interests, he explains, have clashed since English settlers in mid-nineteenth-century Canada first appropriated and transformed the "primitive" Mohawk game of tewaarathon, eventually turning it into a respectable "gentleman's" sport. Drawing on extensive primary research, he shows how amateurs and professionals, elite collegians and working-class athletes, field- and box-lacrosse players, Canadians and Americans, men and women, and Indians and whites have assigned multiple and often conflicting meanings to North America's first—and fastest growing—team sport.

Book excerpt: It's a No-Brainer: An Entrepreneur's Battle to Reduce Concussions in Girls' Lacrosse is the story behind the heart of Hummingbird Sports and why Rob Stolker and his family and friends created the first-ever ASTM-approved girls'/women's lacrosse headgear. Throughout the book, you will hear stories from girls who have suffered life-changing head injuries while playing lacrosse, most often from a single ball or stick to their unprotected heads. Rob also shares the science behind why all girls who play lacrosse need to be wearing head protection today. It's a No-Brainer tells the story of how Rob Stolker and his team at Hummingbird Sports struggled through the ups and downs of making state-of-the-art headgear. But that was just the beginning. They were dumbfounded by the venomous resistance they often encountered from US Lacrosse and other long time members of the lacrosse community who were vehemently opposed to the introduction of headgear despite the large number of head injuries sustained in girls' lacrosse. Backed by science and inspired by the courageous girls who shared their heartbreaking experiences of dealing with traumatic brain injuries, Rob and the team continue to fight for change to protect girls now and in the future. US Lacrosse will eventually mandate headgear in girls' lacrosse, but how many more girls will have to suffer unnecessarily until that happens? The company soon became a groundbreaking girls' lifestyle and sports equipment brand. The story of Rob Stolker and his team's journey through successes, grueling failures, relationships made with industry leaders, the patent process, and the fight to make positive change is an inspiration for anyone passionate about taking chances and having a meaningful, long-lasting impact on the world. Author's BIO: Rob Stolker began his career in day trading, moved on to develop real estate, and eventually started and ran a successful solar panel installation company. Creating the innovative Hummingbird headgear has been his life's second greatest achievement and has become the legacy he wants to leave for his wonderful daughters, the raising of whom is his proudest achievement.
