    Welcome to International Traditional Games Society!


    Founded in 1997 by Tribal College Presidents and Cultural Directors from Montana and Southern Alberta Canada, we are dedicated to the recovery, restoration and re-introduction of Native American Indian Games.

     

    We believe our efforts to revive and reenact traditional games give power to the life-affirming expression of “What Holds Us Together,” as we honor the unique cultural expressions of different tribes, including language, movement, and skills for shared survival.

     

    Through workshops, special events and instructor certification, we stand committed to the preservation of this core element of the first people's culture and traditions.
