Lacrossing Barriers stops by for a visit

July 26, 2023

Our friends and frequent collaborators Lacrossing Barriers were in Siksika on July 25^th and 26^th joining us for our youth day camp at the Deerfoot Sportsplex. Scott Godfrey brought along with him Max Neeson, Graydon Hogg and Adam Thistlethwaite from The University at Albany in New York. Along with the Lacrossing Barriers staff, they spent the afternoon with the kids playing and teaching the kids about lacrosse through drills and games. Dr. Pearl Yellow Old Woman-Healy also presented Scott with a gift, a ribbon shirt as a thank you for his contributions.

“So, the players coming with Lacrossing Barriers are from the University of Albany Great Danes. They’re a division one school. They have a very, very strong tradition of incorporating, the heritage, and culture of the creator’s game, the medicine game (Lacrosse). Their head coach is on the Haudenosaunee National team staff.”
