Enid Blyton is the most popular english kids author of the last centuary, all books about girls in boarding schools or friends having adventures on school holidays finishing most days with "lashings of ginger beer and a game of tennis"
Such titles as The twins at St Clares
Good times at Malory Towers
The famous five go camping/to town/wild whatever
The magic far away tree (my favourite! Different lands come to the top of the tree daily!! Hee hee, I loved them when I was small

It is the fastest game on foot.
lacrosse is a game played by the american indians. it was used to settle disputes and could last for days.
it is the true american sport. (baseball comes from cricket and football from rugby both from the british isles).
many football players play in the spring as a cross-training sport. It has as much contact as in football, and when played correctly, has as much passing as in basketball.
today you can find youth leagues in a lot of places. it is taking a lot of kids away from baseball.
here is the url for more info... http://www.lacrosse.org/
it's a great sport.

On a holiday to Toronto last year, I was informed by a tour guide (i.e. accept no responsibility for accuracy of this information) that Lacrosse is the national sport of Canada (not, as many people guessed, Ice Hockey)! So I guess to answer your questions; Yes, Canada & North America, and Yes (check out www.NLL.com)...!
