Cleanup :
* Sport governing body (this should-be-major article is in a shameful state)
* Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.)
* Standardize Category:American college sports infobox templates to use same font size and spacing.
* Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.

Expand : Professional sports (crucial article explaining the salaried undertaking of sports)
* Sport industry (currently a sub-stub)

Commment[edit]

native american stick ball is part of a wider complex of ball games and ball game stadiums major constructions throughout the new world. I really feel far more should be written here as it is a major aspect of Native American life in North America and especilly in Cental America where huge permamnent stadiums were constructed. isafakir--isa 18:08, 2 July 2006 (UTC)--isa 18:08, 2 July 2006 (UTC)←[reply]

Yes, I think you're right. I added some more, but I do think it would be good if someone would add information on its place in Mesoamerica.--Aaron Walden

History of lacrosse[edit]

I just noticed that this article overlaps a lot with History of lacrosse. Not sure how to resolve that, but I'm stealing your picts! Michael 134.84.96.142 (talk) 23:53, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know Stickball and Lacrosse are the same thing. I would recommend merging the articles, however I want some input first. I'm a bit new to Wikipedia so I don't want to go and break things :) Bvlax2005 (talk) 20:40, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
