How did Oneida youth lacrosse players join the Iroquois Nationals for a summer tournament. What valuable lessons did they learn during their experience. How did an incident at the tournament banquet lead to acts of support and solidarity.
The Iroquois Nationals: Representing Indigenous Heritage in Lacrosse
The Iroquois Nationals lacrosse team holds a unique position in the world of sports. As representatives of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, they embody the rich cultural heritage of the game’s originators. In July 2021, four young athletes from the Oneida Nation had the opportunity to join the U-13 and U-14 Iroquois Nationals teams for the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
Micah Good Eagle, Jamison Quiver, Jonas Johnson, and Daniel Stevens embraced this rare chance to compete at a championship level while representing their indigenous roots. The tournament brought together top-tier teams from across Turtle Island, with some teams, including the Nationals, receiving special invitations to participate.
Cultural Pride on Display: Ribbon Shirts and Lacrosse Heritage
The Iroquois Nationals players made a striking entrance at the tournament, donning their traditional ribbon shirts. This display of cultural pride caught the attention of many lacrosse enthusiasts and participants. Kelly Johnson, mother of player Jonas Johnson, remarked, “It was pretty cool to see the boys walk in with their ribbon shirts on. Anybody that knows anything about lacrosse knows the Iroquois Nationals are a big part of the sport. The game originated with the Iroquois people, so most who saw our boys walk in thought it was pretty cool.”
What significance do ribbon shirts hold in Indigenous culture?
Ribbon shirts are traditional garments worn by many Indigenous peoples in North America. They often feature colorful ribbons sewn onto the shirt in various patterns, representing cultural identity, personal achievements, and tribal affiliations. By wearing these shirts at a major lacrosse tournament, the Iroquois Nationals players were making a powerful statement about their heritage and the roots of the sport they love.
Facing Challenges: Competing Against Established Teams
The tournament presented a unique challenge for the Iroquois Nationals. Unlike many of the other teams who had qualified through previous victories and had years of practice together, the Nationals squad included new additions who hadn’t played together before. This led to a somewhat difficult start in the early stages of the tournament.
Kelly Johnson explained, “The teams our boys went up against had won previously and advanced to this tournament, so they’d been playing and practicing together for years. With our four boys joining the Nationals, they hadn’t played together at all.”
How did the team approach this competitive disadvantage?
Despite the challenges, the Iroquois Nationals approached the tournament with a focus on gaining valuable experience rather than solely aiming for victory. Johnson noted, “The Nationals weren’t necessarily trying to win a title, but they were all-in for the overall experience. Every boy on the team has played in other lacrosse tournaments on other teams, but the fact that they were at the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament is the experience they wanted to have.”
The Tournament Banquet: An Unexpected Turn of Events
Following a day of intense competition on Friday, July 2, all tournament participants and support personnel gathered for a formal banquet at the sponsoring hotel. The Iroquois Nationals players once again proudly wore their ribbon shirts to this event. However, what should have been a celebratory occasion took an unexpected and unfortunate turn.
The banquet was marked by disorganization and logistical issues. Kelly Johnson described the scene: “There were probably close to 60 teams there along with everybody’s parents, coaches, and staff, and it was just a very chaotic scene. We walked into a room with tables everywhere and little buffets set up but no organization or instructions.”
What specific issues arose during the banquet?
- Inadequate seating arrangements for the Iroquois Nationals team and families
- Confusion over table assignments and name cards
- Lack of space for attendees to comfortably eat and socialize
- High cost of $60 per plate for parents, with subpar organization
Confrontation and Solidarity: A Turning Point in the Evening
As the evening progressed, a confrontation occurred between an opposing team’s parent and members of the Iroquois Nationals group. While the exact details of the exchange remain unclear, it appears that belittling remarks were made about the Iroquois team and parents, causing significant distress.
In response to this incident, the Iroquois Nationals team and their families made the decision to leave the banquet hall. What happened next was a powerful display of solidarity that left a lasting impression on the young athletes.
How did other teams respond to the Iroquois Nationals’ departure?
In a remarkable show of support, two other teams – Team Israel (a Jewish lacrosse team from the Los Angeles area) and Team Berserkers – chose to walk out of the banquet alongside the Iroquois Nationals. This act of solidarity demonstrated the strong bonds that can form within the lacrosse community, transcending cultural and ethnic boundaries.
Learning Valuable Lessons: Beyond the Game of Lacrosse
While the tournament was primarily about showcasing lacrosse skills and competing at a high level, the events that unfolded provided the young Oneida athletes with lessons that extended far beyond the playing field. The experience of facing adversity, witnessing acts of discrimination, and receiving support from unexpected allies all contributed to their personal growth.
What key takeaways did the players gain from this experience?
- The importance of cultural pride and representation in sports
- Resilience in the face of challenging competitive situations
- The reality of prejudice and discrimination, even in supportive environments
- The power of solidarity and allyship across different communities
- The value of standing up for oneself and others in difficult situations
The Aftermath: Reflecting on a Memorable Tournament
Following the banquet incident, some of the Iroquois Nationals players and parents returned to their hotel rooms to process the events of the evening. The tournament continued, but the experience had taken on a new dimension for the young athletes.
Despite the challenges and unfortunate incident, the opportunity to compete in the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament remained a significant achievement for the Oneida youth. They had the chance to play alongside and against some of the best young lacrosse players in the world, all while representing their cultural heritage on a global stage.
How might this experience shape the players’ future involvement in lacrosse?
The tournament experience, including both the on-field competition and the off-field events, is likely to have a lasting impact on the young Oneida athletes. It may inspire them to:
- Continue developing their lacrosse skills with renewed determination
- Embrace their role as ambassadors for Indigenous culture in the sport
- Seek out opportunities to promote understanding and inclusivity in lacrosse
- Use their platform as athletes to address issues of discrimination and prejudice
- Foster connections with other Indigenous and non-Indigenous players they met during the tournament
The Bigger Picture: Lacrosse as a Tool for Cultural Exchange and Understanding
The events that transpired during the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament highlight the unique position that lacrosse occupies as a bridge between Indigenous and non-Indigenous cultures. As a sport with deep roots in Native American traditions, lacrosse has the potential to foster greater understanding and appreciation for Indigenous heritage.
The Iroquois Nationals, by participating in international competitions and showcasing their cultural pride, play a crucial role in this ongoing dialogue. Their presence on the global stage serves as a reminder of the sport’s origins and the continued vitality of Indigenous cultures.
How can the lacrosse community build on this experience to promote inclusivity?
To create a more inclusive and respectful environment within the lacrosse community, several steps can be taken:
- Implement cultural sensitivity training for tournament organizers, coaches, and officials
- Create opportunities for cultural exchange and education at lacrosse events
- Establish clear protocols for addressing and reporting incidents of discrimination
- Promote the stories and experiences of Indigenous players and teams
- Encourage non-Indigenous players and teams to learn about the sport’s cultural significance
By embracing these initiatives, the lacrosse community can work towards creating a more inclusive and respectful environment that honors the sport’s Indigenous roots while welcoming players from all backgrounds.
Moving Forward: The Future of Iroquois Nationals and Indigenous Representation in Lacrosse
The experience of the Oneida youth at the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament serves as both a cautionary tale and an inspiration for the future of Indigenous representation in the sport. It highlights the ongoing challenges faced by Indigenous athletes and the importance of continued efforts to promote understanding and respect within the lacrosse community.
As the Iroquois Nationals continue to compete at the highest levels of international lacrosse, they carry with them the hopes and dreams of Indigenous communities across North America. Their presence on the world stage serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring strength and resilience of Indigenous cultures.
What long-term impact might this tournament experience have on Indigenous lacrosse?
The events that unfolded during the tournament could potentially lead to:
- Increased awareness of the challenges faced by Indigenous athletes in mainstream sports
- Greater support and resources for Indigenous lacrosse programs at the youth level
- More opportunities for cultural exchange and education within the lacrosse community
- Strengthened partnerships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous lacrosse organizations
- Inspiring a new generation of Indigenous youth to pursue lacrosse and embrace their cultural heritage
As the sport of lacrosse continues to grow and evolve, the experiences of young Indigenous athletes like those from the Oneida Nation who joined the Iroquois Nationals will play a crucial role in shaping its future. Their journey serves as a powerful reminder of the sport’s deep cultural roots and its potential to bring people together across diverse backgrounds.
Oneida Nation | Oneida youth lacrosse players join Iroquois Nationals for summer tourney, learn valuable lessons

Oneida youth lacrosse players Jamison Quiver, Daniel Stevens, Jonas Johnson, and Micah Good Eagle joined the Iroquois Nationals for the World Series of Youth Lacrosse in July. The acts of support and solidarity they received during their journey will stay with them for a long time.
In early July 2021 four area youths joined the U-13 and U-14 Iroquois Nationals Lacrosse Team for the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament held in Gaithersburg, Md. The opportunity to compete in a championship tournament at that level is a rare and special occasion, and to come away from it experiencing new friendships, comradery, and even an unfortunate incident helped provide ample lessons for personal growth. The tournament featured top-level teams from across Turtle Island while some other teams, including the Nationals, were given special invitations.
Micah Good Eagle, Jamison Quiver, Jonas Johnson, and Daniel Stevens jumped at the opportunity to compete with the Nationals and traveled with family to the tournament just outside Washington, D.C. “It was pretty cool to see the boys walk in with their ribbon shirts on,” Johnson’s mother, Kelly, said. “Anybody that knows anything about lacrosse knows the Iroquois Nationals are a big part of the sport. The game originated with the Iroquois people so most who saw our boys walk in thought it was pretty cool.”
The Nationals got off to a bit of a rough start on the first day of tournament play, but being able to compete against top-tier teams is why the boys joined the tournament. “The teams our boys went up against had won previously and advanced to this tournament, so they’d been playing and practicing together for years,” Johnson said. “With our four boys joining the Nationals, they hadn’t played together at all.”
The Nationals weren’t necessarily trying to win a title but they were all-in for the overall experience, Johnson said. “Every boy on the team has played in other lacrosse tournaments on other teams,” Johnson said. “But the fact that they were at the World Series of Youth Lacrosse tournament is the experience they wanted to have. Most other teams in the tournament had won other tournaments to qualify for this, so our boys knew they’d be playing other top teams.”
Following tournament play all day Friday, July 2, all tournament participants and support personnel came together for a formal banquet at the sponsoring hotel with the Nationals players wearing their ribbon shirts. The player’s meals were taken care of as part of the registration process, however any parents on hand paid $60 per plate.
“There were probably close to 60 teams there along with everybody’s parents, coaches, and staff, and it was just a very chaotic scene,” Johnson said. “We walked into a room with tables everywhere and little buffets set up but no organization or instructions. While each team apparently had name cards on their tables, we walked in and our table only had 10 chairs for eighteen people. There was no real organization and there were parents standing in the hallway eating off their plates, standing outside eating off their plates, and no real room for people to sit and relax. So that was upsetting because we paid $60 per plate and it was not what we were expecting.”
What happened next isn’t completely clear, but a confrontation over table seating occurred between an opposing lacrosse mother and Nationals’ support personnel within earshot of the team. Some of the Iroquois parents and players had taken seats at a table near the stage which originally carried their team name card, but at some point the card has been switched with another team’s card. Due to the seating confusion many other parents, including Johnson, stood toward the back of the room.
As the tournament sponsor Body by Jake spokesperson began to address the audience, Johnson began receiving text messages from some of the players at the table stating there was an incident occurring. “I walked toward the table up front and saw on Iroquois parent stand up and say something to a woman in response to something she had said to another Iroquois mother,” Johnson said. “I’m not sure exactly what was said by the woman, but it was heard by the parents and players at the table and it obviously upset them.”
While what was said by the woman to the Iroquois players and parents at the table cannot be confirmed, reports do suggest belittling remarks about the team and parents were said. With this, the Iroquois Nationals team and parents walked out of the banquet hall, with Team Israel (a Jewish lacrosse team from the Los Angeles area) and Team Berserkers walking out with the Nationals in solidarity. Some of the Nationals players and parents went back to their hotel while others then mingled with the other two teams. While event organizers did tell the Iroquois parents that the situation would be addressed, it seems very little was done at the time to deal with the offending parent.
“We were told that the woman and her son wouldn’t be allowed to continue in the tournament but other parents said they were there during the closing ceremonies,” Johnson said. “So, this whole episode was pretty upsetting to our parents although the kids seemed to be much more resilient about it.”
The Iroquois Nationals team did indeed take the incident in stride and continued to compete during the tournament. While the boys didn’t take the World Series of Youth Lacrosse by storm, important lessons about teamwork and comradery were certainly taken from the tournament. During the closing ceremonies, Team Berserkers and Team Israel would yet again tangibly demonstrate their respect for the Iroquois Nationals.
“Each competing team in the tournament had team flags,” Johnson said. “Our Iroquois team had two, and Team Berserkers asked if they could carry our Hiawatha Belt flag out for us, and then Team Israel asked us if they could walk out onto the field right beside us during the closing ceremonies. So, it was very heartwarming seeing that support. When the Nationals were called to the center of the field it was great to see them cheered and supported. It was also announced that the two teams competing in the championship game would wear orange on their helmets in recognition of the Nationals. We don’t know whether the officials knew we wore orange because of the Canadian Residential School issues taking place or not, but it was nice to see.”
While many of the parents and supporters of the Iroquois Nationals were clearly upset by what had transpired during the banquet, the players themselves walked away from the tournament with their heads held high. “All of our boys had a great time,” Johnson said. “I think if you were to ask them, they wouldn’t even mention that incident as a memory. I believe their memories are going to be more of the new friendships they gained and being able to play in the World Series of Youth Lacrosse, which is exactly what this should be all about.
“And this was certainly a learning experience for myself and my son to reflect on who we are and why he plays the game,” Johnson said. “He’s not out there playing for medals and championships like many others are. He’s out there because he loves to play the game and it brings him happiness. He plays for his family and the Creator and for everything he was ever taught about the game of lacrosse, and that goes for all four of our boys that were on that team.”

900 07 Pros and cons
The history of the emergence of men’s mohawk haircut
The name of the hairstyle is associated with the tribal confederation of the American Indians, which existed in the 17th and 18th centuries. Iroquois men wore characteristic hairstyles to intimidate enemies – shaved heads were decorated with porcupine quills or animal fur in such a way that a high, noticeable crest was formed.
The “fashion” of a militant Aboriginal tribe was adopted by the punks. In the 80s of the last century, a subculture appeared that stood out not only in musical taste, but also in appearance. Iroquois was worn not only by boys, but also by girls. As a rule, the hair was dyed in bright acid shades, the comb was placed vertically with modeling tools. The side zones were shaved and decorated additionally.
Ordinary men did not dare to have such a hairstyle, but the Mohawk was a particularly recognizable sign of belonging to the subculture.
Features
Several decades have passed and the mohawk has become in demand among men who want bright and bold ideas, originality. Naturally, a new reading of the Iroquois for men is not intended to shock or amaze others, to protest. The main goal is to make a man elegant, but modern and memorable.
The main features of the modern mohawk for men:
- the bulk of the hair in this hairstyle is shaved almost to zero;
- the master leaves longer hair only on the strip (different widths are used for different hairstyles) from the back of the head to the forehead;
- The length of the hair on the mohawk strip for men can be different. Modern fashion has abandoned the huge standing combs of punks.
A man will have to learn some hair styling techniques with styling products. It is recommended to see how the master will do it during the initial haircut, and then repeat at home. Of course, you can experiment.
Modern trends
Modern masters offer their interpretation of hairstyles. Now the accents will be mixed not only on the central part of the head, but also on the design of the side zones. It all depends on the imagination of the master and the desires of the man. The side zones can be decorated with shaved lines, different lengths of hair, even tattoos.
And the very central line of the mohawk in men can be unusual. For example, different lengths of hair – longer at the bangs, with a gradual decrease towards the back of the head.
Another modern trend in men’s mohawk is the fade technique. Whiskey is not completely shaved, but in a cascade. The length of the hair on them gradually increases towards the central strip. The back of the head is formed in the same way. This technique is ideal if the haircut is performed on curly hair.
Men often add other accents to an image with a mohawk – a decorated beard.
Note : bright hair colors are used very rarely. The current trend dictates to dye your hair in a gray (platinum) shade or toned individual strands, but without a sharp contrast.
Who suits
Iroquois is a hairstyle for the modern man. But initially it is considered as a component of a young guy. In addition, it is not combined with office style. As a rule, the mohawk can be found on the head of athletes or men of creative professions. They do not often wear formal suits, appear at business negotiations. But practice shows that in a suit a man can look elegant with a similar hairstyle.
The main thing is that a man be confident in himself, not only accustomed to the attention of others, but also doing such PR.
Who will find it difficult to take care of the mohawk hairstyle:
- men with curly hair. You will have to make friends with the iron to make the strands straight. They will be easier to lay;
- for men with triangle faces;
- people with scalp defects.
Guys with an oval, square face type, a haircut will suit optimally. The haircut is simple and especially suitable for young women. She especially fell in love with the boys who really want to be like their sports idols.
Types of mohawks
Despite the simplicity of execution and apparent simplicity, the mohawk has many modifications.
Short
A mini version of the hairstyle preferred by men who do not want to impress others with their appearance. Main features:
- central band width – 2-3 cm;
- hair height approx. 4 cm;
- the sides and back of the head are completely shaved.
As an option, a man can leave an elongated bang (up to 6-8 cm) to style it slightly up or to one side.
Medium
A compromise for men who want to be able to style their hair in different styles. It is carried out, as well as a short one, but the length of the hair is increased by 2-3 cm. As a rule, such a haircut is worn by men of creative professions – musicians. Laying is close to classic – a high comb.
With long bangs
Modern trends – men’s mohawk with long bangs. It is recommended to choose such a hairstyle for guys who have thick hair. Liquid bangs will look strange. Styling is simple – the bangs are combed back or on the side and fixed with styling products.
Classic
This is the most famous hairstyle for men. The back of the head and sides are shaved smoothly, a central strip up to 2 cm wide is left on the head. If the guy’s hair is curly, the back of the head and side zones are cut using the fade technique.
Sporty
Sporty mohawk is very similar to the mini version. The difference lies in the length of the hair on the central strip – no more than 1-2 cm, that is, the difference between the shaved zones and the central one is almost minimal.
Gothic
This style is probably the most striking one available. The lateral zones and the back of the head are made “under zero”. The center should be 2 to 4 fingers wide. Any length of hair, even the most extreme. Hair styling is also extravagance – the comb is laid vertically in full length.
Tip : Comb hair can be of different lengths. Longer at the forehead, the minimum length at the back of the head.
Quiff
Similar to the popular bob. The wide strip in the center of the head is of medium length; on the back of the head and sides, the hair is not shaved, but cut. Leave a long bang that falls freely on the forehead.
Patterns
One of the options when whiskey is additionally decorated. Such a hairstyle requires a highly skilled master. In addition, a man will have to periodically adjust the pattern or completely shave the painted areas. Otherwise, the drawing will look messy.
Shaved temples
Shaved temples are an essential part of the Mohawk hairstyle for men. As an option, leave only one temple shaved. The second one is neatly cut using the fade technique, leaving a long bang that fits in the direction of the unshaven area.
Iroquois with a braid
Brave guys can complement their everyday look with a stylish braid, which is woven into the central zone. But for this, the length of the strands must be sufficient, otherwise the pigtail simply will not hold.
Mohawk with tail
The central part can be left out, but tied into a stylish knot. This hairstyle is combined even with stylish suits.
American version
American version of Mohawk – traditionally shaved areas with a strip of two centimeters in the middle (any length). The Siberian version increases the central strip to 4 cm.
Creative ideas
Even this simple hairstyle can be done in a creative way. Like glam chic. Whiskey is not processed “to zero”, the hair is simply lifted, fixed with styling products. The color is better to choose a contrasting or bright. For example, you can make a mohawk with white or ashy hair color and patterns.
Mohawk for boys
The boys are just delighted with the creative haircut. For children, the execution technique is somewhat different – the temples are cut short, leaving a medium-length mohawk. From a very young age, boys learn to take care of their hair by putting the mohawk up. Side zones can be decorated with patterns.
Mohawk can also be the perfect trendy haircut option for a teenage boy who wants to stand out and draw attention to himself.
It is important to remember that many educational institutions prohibit such non-standard haircuts.
How to make and cut your hair at home
In a barbershop, a haircut made by a professional hairdresser will cost a round sum. But you can also do it at home. For this, it is better to use help. Necessary tools for men’s mohawk hairstyle:
- fine comb;
- sharp scissors;
- thinning scissors;
- barber clips;
- hair clipper.
If you decide to cut your hair yourself, have a couple of mirrors ready so that you can control the haircut.
Mohawk step by step:
- wash hair, towel dry, comb thoroughly;
- Mark a strip of the desired width in the center. Initially, it is better to mark a strip with a margin, then its width can be adjusted;
- fix the strip with a rubber band or clip;
- Shave the remaining areas with the comb of the chosen length. The direction of movement of the machine is from the temples to the back of the head. You can simply cut your hair short, but doing it yourself is more difficult;
- choose the shape of the strip design – oval, square, triangle. Carry out edging;
- remove the fasteners from the central part of the mohawk;
- process the hair comb – trim or cut, shave.
Now you can move on to styling your hair.
Mohawk men’s styling and fixing
There are several styling options, but there are those that are considered classic.
Mohawk
The raised Mohawk is the most common style performed by men. Despite the apparent complexity, it is very simple to perform it. You need to prepare – a comb, mousse, foam or varnish.
Hair is styled after washing. Apply a styling agent to damp hair. The manufacturer’s recommendations must be followed. Too much styling product can make your hair look greasy and dirty. The product is carefully distributed over the entire length of the hair. Use your hands or a comb to form a vertical comb. Then gently dry the Mohawk. Fix it with varnish.
Recumbent version
Modern fashion has moved away from the traditional men’s raised mohawk. A new type of hair styling – recumbent. Special styling is not required. It is enough to wash and dry your hair, apply a little styling product. Then the hair is carefully combed. Bangs and the whole mass can be laid on its side or back.
Mohawk color stains
Vibrant staining is rare. But extravagant young people still use it. The comb itself is mowed – in one color, with the selection of individual strands, complex staining with patterns. But this hairstyle option is more relevant for teenagers or musicians.
Combination with a beard
Practice shows that a mohawk is perfectly complemented by a beard. Of course, provided that it is thick, decorated and well-groomed. A beard will help shape your face. For example, a mohawk is not suitable for men with a “triangle” face shape, a beard will hide a sharp chin. Then the man will be able to afford such a hairstyle.
Star examples
This style is more suitable for athletes or rock musicians. Mohawk in different versions was worn and continues to be worn by Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Neymar. A well-known case in the history of football – a bright Mohawk made himself a 68-year-old coach of the Montpellier football club. There was a good reason for this – for the first time in history, his team was able to become the champion of France. Fans of the team came to the conclusion that this is the most beautiful hairstyle for men in the world.
The musicians Jared Leto, Mikhail Gorshenev, Wattie Buchan, Benji Madden and others are not far behind.
Pros and cons
Like any hairstyle for men, the mohawk has its advantages and disadvantages.
Pros:
- suitable for different hair lengths;
- has many options for cutting, styling;
- emphasizes the individuality of a man, makes him stand out;
- can fit into your everyday look;
- makes the carrier original.
Let’s highlight some of the minuses of the Mohawk:
- is still associated with representatives of some subcultures, to which society is wary;
- has a number of restrictions – by profession, age. Men – representatives of ordinary professions will look quite strange with a mohawk, especially in middle and older age;
- at home, you can perform the simplest option. Help needed;
- short areas of the hairstyle need constant correction.
Iroquois is a trendy hairstyle for men. Many are accustomed to seeing her only with a raised comb. The modern version has many other styling methods, a basic haircut. It is optimal for athletes, musicians and very young people. Boys like this hairstyle too. A man can do a haircut at home, but this will require skill or outside help. Iroquois always attracts the attention of others, making the wearer original and stylish.
