Lacrosse an olympic sport?

Lacrosse has been dominated by the Americans, who have won the World Championship every year except 1978, when they lost to Canada. Since then the World Championship has multiplied in size, in terms of teams competing. The countries taking part were Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, England, Germany, Iroquois Nation, Japan, Scotland, Sweden, United States, and Wales. Although it is played in many countries the United States is still expected to dominate. The Iroquois have been competing against other countries since the 19th Century, but were not allowed to participate in the World Championship or Olympics until 1990 because the box lacrosse leagues they played in were considered professional in nature and therefore they were not able to play in amateur competition. It did not take long for th Iroquois to be eligible to play, their winless streak did not last long either. Their first win came in the 1994 games, when they defeated newcomer Japan twice. Many people in the lacrosse community talk about attempting to re-include lacrosse in the Olympic games. But because they only had 11 countries show in the 1998 world championship they are unable to make it an olympic sport because it need 75 countries. This means that lacrosse must further develop in 12 countries and grow to 47 others in order to become an Olympic sport.
