Men's training squad for 2024 World Lacrosse Box Championships announced

England Lacrosse is delighted to announce the 38-player England men’s training squad ahead of the 2024 World Lacrosse Box Championships in Utica, USA.

Head Coach, Walt Christianson, along with his coaching team, has concluded his evaluations following a series of trial sessions last month and selected his 38-player strong group to take forward towards the Championships set for September next year; the squad will be whittled down to a smaller final Championship squad early next year.

The 2024 World Lacrosse Box Championships will take place between 20-29 September in Utica, USA where the England men’s team will be looking to continue their good run of form after winning the European Championship last year and finishing fourth at the last World Championship in 2019.

16 of that European Championship-winning squad have been selected as part of the new training squad, including captain Tom Roche.

A women’s World Championship will run concurrently alongside the men’s competition for the first time next year and England will be releasing their initial training squad for that event in due course.

Walt would like to congratulate everyone who’s been included in the training squad and thank everyone who attended the trial sessions.

Please note, there are still additional overseas-based players yet to be assessed who will also be considered for the final squad.
