Lacrosse is one of the oldest games in history. The sport was the training ground for centuries of warriors of the eastern Native American tribes of North America. The ancient Olympic games were born out of the training for war by the Greeks. Perhaps the question should be, why isn't Lacrosse in the Olympics?
they used to play lacrosse a sport that is were you trough a ball to a player and you have to catch it with a special polo stick
Because lacrosse is only played in America, not many countries are able to pay for all the equipment.
Lacrosse is the only Summer Olympics event that starts with the letter L. It was part of the 1904 and 1908 Summer Olympics. Currently there are no Summer Olympic events that start with the letter L.

Not enough countries play lacrosse nor are there enough governing federations associated with the International Lacrosse Federation for the International Olympic Committee to consider adding lacrosse to its list of sports. The popularity of lacrosse is growing ... at the start of 2010 there were 36 countries that were members of the Internation Lacrosse Federation. 40 countries are needed in an international federation before the International Olympic Committee will consider the sport for the Games. And after getting the 40 countries it is a minimun seven year wait before the sport will be added to the Games by the IOC. The IOC will probably add lacrosse to its list of sports in this decade and, possibly, add lacrosse to the Olympics in the 2020s.
no- they are now onyx lacrosse
