Who Am I & Why Lacrosse Matters to Me
Hi! I’m Melody, a proud mama of four, with three kids who play lacrosse (two high school girls and one youth boy). I’ve seen how this game builds strength, confidence, and connection. But I’ve also seen how hard it can be, especially for girls, to get real game time.
That’s why I’m starting Turquoise Thunder — to give more girls the chance to get on the field, grow their skills, and feel the power of sisterhood. Even a few minutes of play can build courage, leadership, and love for the Medicine game (aka better know as secular lacrosse).
Lacrosse is more than just a sport, it’s a gift from the creator giving to the (Haudenosaunee people of the long house)as a medicine game, and I hold and give deep gratitude for this beautiful space. I want to bring kids from all walks of life together to play, connect, and discover the beauty of this powerful game.
Let’s grow this movement, one pass, one ground ball, one cheer at a time!
That’s me in the red blouse with my mom Venus, and two of my kids—Daughter Nłchi, a high school lacrosse player, and Sun Tekiawi, a lacrosse youth player. My other two were off chasing adventure and soaking up some learning!
