Twenty-three teams from across the globe will compete in the 2022 World Lacrosse Men’s U21 World Championship from 10-20 August 2022 at the University of Limerick.
Over 10 days and nights, the best players in the world will face off in approximately 100 games for the right to be crowned world champion.
The international tournament will see the home of the current All-Ireland hurling champions house a new brand of “small ball,” a sport that rivals hurling as “the fastest game on two feet.”
This is the first time Ireland will host a World Lacrosse championship. Ireland Lacrosse, the National Governing Body of the sport, is responsible for producing the event in collaboration with World Lacrosse.
We were joined by Michael Kennedy the CEO of Ireland Lacrosse and Event Director for the World Championships, by star player in the US Pro game Grant Ament and by Bill Schoonmaker, President of Motivate Sports to discuss why the event will be so special.
