England Lacrosse are delighted to announce ‘A Virtual Evening with…’ session with former England and current Great Britain Men’s Head Coach, Tom Wenham, on Thursday 14 January, starting at 7pm.
Tom will be specifically looking at, discussing, and analysing the meeting between England and Japan in the 5th place play-off game at the 2018 Men’s World Lacrosse Championship, which England won 11-9.
Winning this game was a huge triumph, firstly, as it gave England a fourth straight 5th place finish at the World Lacrosse Championship but mainly because England found themselves 7-0 down and really struggling at half-time.
A Virtual Evening with Tom Wenham is the perfect opportunity to hear from a seasoned lacrosse professional, who has coached at the very top of the game, as he discusses what was tactically different between the first and second half England performances during that famous match.
England Lacrosse Regional Core Products Officer, Richard Gartside, who has helped organise the evening, said to have someone of Tom’s coaching calibre speaking is really great.
“After a really tough year, when not much lacrosse has been played in England and across the world, An Evening with Tom Wenham will be such an exciting and insightful event.
“The England v Japan game that Tom will be looking at is one of the most memorable England matches in recent years and to be able to hear analysis from the Head Coach on the day really will be a unique experience.”
The virtual evening is free and will take place via video call on Microsoft Teams; everyone who signs up will be sent a link to the call closer to the event.
