Algonquian is not the name of a tribe, but a very large family of distantly related languages spoken across most of North America.
The game of rackets was played by the six Iroquois tribes and by the Ojibwe, Abenaki, Cree, Delaware, Iowa, Menominee, Miami, Missisauga, Nipissing, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Sauk and Fox and Shawnee (all of them, apart from the Iroquois, classed as Algonquian tribes).

lacrosse, in the 5th century by the iroquois tribe of native americans
Lacrosse was originally a native american sport that the settlers of North America picked up and it morphed into the modern day sport. It was originally played by the Iroquois tribe and was called lacrosse by a French man who first called it the sticking French which is lacrosse.
Algonquian is not a tribe, it's a large grouping of tribes that speak Algonquian languages. Tribes in the Powhatan confederacy, which Pocahontas was part of, spoke an Algonquian dialect. That language is now extinct, though there are efforts to reconstruct it, which means they have an approximation of it based on historical word lists and still-existing Algonquian dialects.
