Wild At Heart (of Europe)

For the very first time, national indoor lacrosse teams will convene in a “new lacrosse” country, although lacrosse has been played in the Czech Republic since 1980s. This will be a great opportunity to spread lacrosse awareness both in the Czech Republic and Europe. The Czech Republic has vast experience in organizing international lacrosse events. Apart from already well known field Prague Cup and box Aleš Hřebeský Memorial, which both attract many lacrosse teams and fans from Europe as well as overseas every year, local lacrosse devotees organized the very first European Championship in 1995, European Championship in 2004 and Women’s Lacrosse World Cup in 2009.

Organizing Committee hopes that WILC 2011 will become a great festival of lacrosse, attended by record number of indoor national teams.
