They still play, usually in early September...

They have tournaments at the Sequoyah Birthplace Museum, just down the road from me in Vonore, TN. They reenact the assault on Fort Loudon also. Guess what? The Cherokee still wipe 'em out! :-D :-D

When I lived in Mississippi, The Choctaw used to hold the World Championship Stickball Tournament in Philadelphia, MS. Anybody who's never seen it, if you think football or hockey is rough, you need to check out stickball, it can be pretty brutal. Roughest game I've ever witnessed.
