  • lies. Native Indians & Origins of Sports; The Rubber Tree & Olmecs Contribution to Recreational Activities

    TRUTH behind the true originators of the All-American Games & why 'Indians' should get the CREDIT. Indians invented Lacrosse, Hockey (field and ice), Stick ball/Baseball, Soccer, Volleyball, Basketball, & football (& the heavy gear, for rough playing that comes along with the games; helmets & pads). Basically 'Indians' INVENTED All-American Sports & Masterminded games

  • You should mention he Dr. James Naismith was a Canadian
