? There was dwile flonking, pato and a Mesoamerican ballgame, along with a few sports that we still play today. These games might sound strange, but there are a few sports you may recognize.What began as stickball, a Native American contest that training tribal warriors played for recreation and religious reasons, is what we know now as the international sport of lacrosse. The Iroquois Tribes played the first game in the St. Lawrence Valley area around A.D. 1100, making it America’s.
Games could take place for several days and were the equivalent of the Super Bowl. The field itself was hundreds of yards, or several miles in length and width. The players ranged from 100 on the field to as many as. Players used wooden sticks in early games, sometimes with net baskets or pockets attached, and used small, deer hide-wrapped balls. Deer sinew formed the nets. Native American oral traditions say birds and mammals played the first lacrosse game.
It is the official sport of Japan and today’s sumo wrestlers are superstars. Though the rules are simple, the training and discipline to become a sumo star is hard. If any part of your body other than your feet touches the ground, or you step outside the straw ring, the match is over, and your opponent is the winner. Some winners in the past got the entirety of Japan.The national sport of Argentina, juego del pato , is a game played on horseback that combines elements of polo and basketball.
