tribe to tribe and games could be played by as few as fifteen to as many
as 1,000 men and women at a time. These matches could last for three
days,  beginning  at  dawn  each  day  and  ending  at  sunset.  The  goals
could be specific trees or rocks, and were a few hundred yards to a few
miles apart. Despite these differences, the sole object of every game
was the same: to score goals by any means necessary. Serious injuries
caused by blows from the heavy wooden sticks used in the games were
not  uncommon,  and  often  expected.  Not  surprisingly,  the  Native
Americans  considered  these  precursors  to  today’s  lacrosse  excellent
battle preparation for young warriors, and games were often used to
settle disputes between tribes without resorting to full-blown warfare.
For the Six Tribes of the Iroquois, certain matches of 
Tewaarathon
held religious significance, as well. One of the most important gods
the Iroquois worshipped was the Creator, 
Deganawidah
. In Iroquois
legend,  the  Creator  united  the  Six  Tribes  into  the  one  nation.
Tewaarathon
was played to please the Creator, and the competition was
viewed as a recreation of the Iroquois Creation Story, where super-
natural forces of good and evil battled each other in an epic struggle.
