What is Indigenous North American stickball? Google Doodle celebrates sport NativeAmericanHeritageMonth
One Cherokee tale describes the first-ever stickball game that was played between land animals and birds.
Traditional stickball games were often played over several days, with as many as 1,000 men from opposing tribes. The game played a huge role in keeping the peace and was often organized in place of violence. Today, stickball is still played by groups around North America. Players take turns throwing the ball down the field that has two poles or sticks at each end. Stickball sticks have a rounded end and are used to hurl the ball down a field toward teammates who hit or touch the pole to score points.
