National Teams

decoration

36-time world champions.

Our players chase championships on the field. They’ve done that more successfully than any other country in the world, winning a record 35 World Lacrosse championships. Their story is bigger. They strive for excellence in everything they do. They play. They teach. They inspire. They play to honor their country.

USA Lacrosse currently sponsors eight national teams — men's and women's senior, men's and women's U20 (previously U19), men's and women's Sixes, and men's and women's box — along with the National Team Development Program.
