DESCRIPTION:The Legacy Game\n\nThe Legacy Game is about bringing together a
 ll who love lacrosse to honour the sport’s Indigenous roots and legacy. Th
 e name “Legacy Game” is inspired by the celebratory stick that is awarded 
 to the winning team at the end of the game. McGill’s Athletic Department w
 as gifted this handcrafted stick as a keepsake and to honour the winning t
 eam. Over the 3 years this special game has been played\, the winning team
 ’s plaque has been placed on this stick and displayed in the trophy case i
 n Tomlison Hall. \n\nHeld on National day for Truth and Reconciliation (al
 so known as Orange Shirt Day)\, the Legacy Game also serves as a time of r
 eflection and remembrance. This day honours the survivors of the Indian Re
 sidential School system and the children who never returned home\, while r
 eminding us of the ongoing work needed to foster awareness\, healing\, and
  reconciliation. \n\n \n\n14th Annual Indigenous Awareness Weeks\n\nThis e
 vent has been a part of McGill’s Annual Indigenous Awareness Weeks for the
  past 3 years\, contributing to a space that encourages the McGill communi
 ty to learn\, reflect\, and centre Indigenous excellence. For McGill’s 14t
 h Annual Indigenous Awareness Weeks\, the theme is A Decade of Truth and R
 econciliation\, marking 10 years since the final report of the Truth and R
 econciliation Commission of Canada.  \n\nThe Legacy Game remains one of th
 e main events where Indigeneity and truth and reconciliation are highlight
 ed through sports. Each year\, we strive to create a space where Indigenou
 s communities feel welcomed and celebrated\, while also offering non-Indig
 enous fans the chance to learn about the game’s origins and show their sup
 port for the traditions carried forward by today’s players. Truth and Reco
 nciliation is an ongoing effort and  showcasing that through a medium like
  the Legacy Game engages athletes\, fans\, and coaches to reflect on the o
 rigins of the game they play and honour the land on which they play and co
 aches to reflect on the origins of the game they play and honour the land 
 on which they play on.     \n\nThis year\, we have invited Kanien'kehá:ka 
 Elder Mike Mitchell\, who is a Lacrosse Hall of Famer to open our game in 
 a good way\, and DJ Poptrt a Kanien'kehá:ka artist\, to perform at halftim
 e. \n\nIn recognition of Orange Shirt Day\, free admission will be offered
  to all attendees wearing an orange shirt. If you do not own an orange shi
 rt or have forgotten it\, we will be selling Legacy Game shirts at the McG
 ill x John Abbott Pow Wow at MacDonald Campus on September 19th\, and on g
 ame day at the entrance. The t-shirt sale proceeds will go to The Network\
 , an urban Indigenous organization that partners with Indigenous health\, 
 community\, and education program all around Montreal.  \n\nWe look forwar
 d to seeing you cheer out there in your orange shirts!  \n\n \n
