Teaching through Lacrosse
Lacrosse is known as The Creator's Game. It has been an integral part of the Indigenous cultures for centuries. Lacrosse is more than using sticks and scoring goals...it's a way to find refuge in daily life, to reflect, to clear one's mind, to work together...it's medicine.
How Mavrix is Different
Through lacrosse, Mavrix teaches core values and builds character. No one player can win a game by themself - they must rely on the team. Working together.
Players learn to stay focused, leave frustrating events behind, always show respect for the game and community, and above all...
BE. A. GOLDFISH.
Mavrix works with the sovereign Tuscarora Nation to create a traditional wooden lacrosse stick for each season. The players then etch their numbers in the stick, symbolizing the individual but also how each player makes up the Mavrix.
It is a truly special experience.
