Stories from across the lacrosse world curated by the Executive Director of the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame
Lacrosse Talks - Don Fisher
The Canadian Lacrosse Foundation is finishing up 2020 by re-issuing the Lacrosse Talks that have been compiled over the last two years. Lacrosse Talks videos generally provide additional information and take a more conversational approach with the interviewee than the Legends of Lacrosse interviews. Historians and other lacrosse individuals also provide their unique perspectives in these episodes.
This is the first in our series.
Donald M. Fisher traces the evolution of the sport from the pre-colonial era to the founding in 2001 of a professional outdoor league—Major League Lacrosse—told through the stories of the people behind each step in lacrosse's development.
