British Lacrosse has announced its women’s and men’s squads ahead of the 2024/2025 season, with 59 players, representing some of the best talent in Great Britain, being selected.
Women’s Head Coach Phil Collier and his coaching team has selected 31 players for the upcoming season, including 18 of England’s 2024 European Championship-winning squad.
Emilie Chandler, Ella Cohen, Lucy Devine, Claire Faram, Emily Gray, Cece Green, Minty Loxton-Barnard, Anna Neville, Emma Oakley, Alice Ripper, Anna Saunter, Emma Savage, Tilly Shires, Georgie Southorn, Dylan Whittington, Liv Wimpenny, Julie Wise, and Sofia Wise have been selected for the latest British Lacrosse squad less than a month after lifting the European Championship title with a 12-5 final win over Israel.
Men’s Head Coach Tom Wenham and his team of coaches has picked 28 players to play during the 24/25 season, including 11 athletes who competed for England at the 2023 World Lacrosse Men’s Championship.
William Baxter, Hal Dwobeng, Drew Bickerton, Tom Bracegirdle, Tim Collins, Nick DeCaprio, Danny Hilditch, Tommy Kirkland, Hugo Peel, Mike Pomfret, and Dan Watson all helped England to finish sixth at last year’s World Championship.
53 of the 59 players selected for British lacrosse this season have played in the world’s first Sixes Lacrosse league, The Fly, including The Fly’s all-time top women’s and men’s goal-scorers Alex Russell (60 goals) and Liv Wimpenny (50 goals).
Yesterday (Sunday 11 August) marked the conclusion of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris and the Olympic flag was officially handed to actor Tom Cruise to transport back to Los Angeles as the USA gears up for its first Olympic Games since Atlanta 1996.
Lacrosse will make its first Olympic appearance in LA for 80 years since the 1948 London Olympics with Sixes Lacrosse being the format showcased.
