The 2025 E-Box and ShE-Box Invitationals will take place from 2 - 5 May at LCC Radotin in Prague, Czechia, the event organisers have announced.

Taking place slightly later than usual due to the Easter bank holiday weekend (18 - 21 April), the 2025 E-Box and ShE-Box Invitationals will once again welcome teams from all over Europe to gain experience playing high-level box lacrosse.

Because of the Easter weekend, the Aleš Hřebeský Memorial tournament that usually immediately follows E-Box/ShE-Box will also be moved, taking place the weekend before.

Founded in 2015, the annual E-Box Invitational aims to provide international box lacrosse teams with the opportunity to play full, competitive games against various opponents from across the continent outside of major international tournaments.

There are no winners, no points, and no trophies with the goal being the games themselves as well as gaining experience and making new friends.

England has entered a team into the E-Box competition at three of the past four editions (2019, 2023, 2024).

In 2022, a women’s event, entitled ShE-Box, was introduced with five teams from across Europe taking part and in 2023 the first ever English team, SBL Ravens, entered; 2024 saw England’s first ever women’s national side enter where they won four of their five games.

Previous editions of the event have been live streamed and can be re-watched HERE.
