"I’m extremely proud of all who represented British Lacrosse. It was great to have both teams in the final, but the real success was how we were able to come together as a group.

We hit all our targets and the event will undoubtedly be a hugely significant stepping stone on our route to the World Games."

Tom Wenham

Men's Head Coach

“What a great weekend for British Lacrosse.

Making history as the first ever European Sixes Champions. The teams put on an exciting display of top class Sixes in an All-GB final.

The tournament has helped us to make excellent progress in our development as we prepare for the World Games in July.”

Women’s Head Coach

 

British Lacrosse is dismayed that our friends in the Ukrainian lacrosse teams were unable to participate in the EuroLax Sixes Cup 2022 due to the ongoing situation in their country and we fear for their safety.

British Lacrosse joins many national and international sports organisations in calling for an immediate end to all hostilities in Ukraine and we hope for the urgent restoration of peace.
