The immediate remit will be to conclude planning and delivery of preparations for and participation in this summer’s European Lacrosse Federation (ELF) Men’s Championship in Wrocław, Poland from 10-19 July.

Beyond this, the role will have the potential to extend to support this playing and management group in preparation for and participation at the 2027 World Lacrosse Men’s Championship in Japan.

The Team Manager will work closely with the England Lacrosse National Performance Manager and Head Coach to ensure the overall culture of the programme is aligned with England Lacrosse’s vision and values.
