What sport that the Iroquois played?
Many of the games recorded for the Ojibwe/Chippewa people involved running or other physical exercise, so I guess they count as sports. Running races were certainly part of the culture of most native groups.
Games recorded for the Ojibwe include double ball, hoop and pole, racket, ring and pin, shinny, snow snake and tops - some of these were for children only, others could involve people of all ages.
Double ball (papassi kawan - the throwing game) involved throwing with special curved sticks a pair of leather balls stuffed with sand and connected by a leather strap. Two large teams of women each had a pole or tree limb serving as a goal, 100 to 200 yards apart, each team trying to fling the double ball over the pole in their opponent's half of the pitch.
Hoop and pole (titipanatuwanagi) involved rolling a 12 inch wooden hoop filled with a network of thin leather straps and throwing a thin dart about 3 feet long with a feather attached, aiming to penetrate the exact centre of the netted hoop.
Racket (pagatowan) was very much like lacrosse, using a small padded deerskin ball and rackets much the same as modern lacrosse rackets. The two teams could have up to 50 people on the pitch at the same time.
Ring and pin (paskahwewog or napawagan) involved tapering bundles of cedar leaves or conical bones strung together and a wooden pin; the bundle or bones were thrown up and had to be caught on the pin, scoring different points depending on where the pin ended up.
Shinny was much like hockey and was played by people of all ages. A deerskin ball about 4 inches across was struck with sticks curved at the end - the hand could never touch the ball.
Snow snake (shoshiman) or shosehman) was played in winter, when ice and snow covered the ground. Specially carved and painted sticks from 8 to 30 inches long and larger at the front end were skimmed along the ice or along a narrow channel made in the snow. The furthest sliding stick won the game.
Tops were made by boys from wood, nuts or suitable stones and spun with whips or sticks, aiming to knock over the tops of the other children.
