Lacrosse is considered to be the oldest organized sport in North America, with origins going as early as the 17th century in aboriginal Canada. Players use the head of a lacrosse stick to carry, pass, catch, and shoot the lacrosse ball into the goal, which comprises uprights and a crossbar framing a loose net. Its different versions include field lacrosse, women’s lacrosse, box lacrosse and intercrosse. World Lacrosse is the global governing body for the sport, and hosts the World Lacrosse Championship for men, the Women’s Lacrosse World Cup, the World Indoor Lacrosse Championship for box lacrosse, and the Under-19 World Lacrosse Championships for both men and women, every four years. Lacrosse has been contested at Summer Olympic Games, 1904 and 1908, and as a demonstration event at the 1928, 1932, and 1948 Summer Olympics.
