Ryan Avery

Ryan Avery is a Canadian former professional indoor lacrosse goaltender, born on 27 June 1982 in Hamilton, Ontario. Indoor lacrosse, also called box lacrosse, is played inside hockey arenas with a smaller goal, and the goaltender is the player who guards it against shots. Avery played at the top professional level of the indoor game in the National Lacrosse League, where he was on the rosters of the Buffalo Bandits and the Calgary Roughnecks. He also took part in a Guinness world record-setting lacrosse game that lasted 24 hours, a marathon match that helped raise money for the charity Right To Play. His entry here rests on the English Wikipedia article about him, which gives his birth details, his nationality, his position and the two league clubs he played for.
