The 2025 World Lacrosse Men’s U20 Championship concluded on Saturday after 57 games in 10 days of action on Jeju Island in Korea on Sunday with Canada claiming a historic first-ever gold medal in the championship.
Canada shocked rival United States in the gold medal game, 6-5, winning on a dramatic last-second save from goalkeeper Grayson Manning to snap a nine-championship streak of titles for the United States. Canada handed the United States its third-ever loss in the event and first since 2012.
In the bronze medal game, Australia claimed its first medal in the Men’s U20 Championship since 2003 and ended the Haudenosaunee’s streak of three consecutive bronzes in the event.
World Lacrosse CEO Jim Scherr said: “The 2025 Men’s U20 Championship in Jeju Island was a landmark moment for our sport. Over 10 days, fans witnessed nearly 60 thrilling games that showcased the global depth and future of lacrosse. We congratulate Canada on making history with its first gold medal at this level, and Australia on returning to the podium for the first time in more than two decades. These milestones reflect both the growth of our game and the bright future that lies ahead for lacrosse worldwide.”
World Lacrosse President Bob DeMarco said: “On behalf of World Lacrosse, I extend our deepest thanks to the Korea Lacrosse Association, Jeju Island and the Republic of Korea for their warm hospitality and outstanding efforts in hosting this championship. Their commitment created an unforgettable experience for our athletes, teams, and fans from around the world.”
The United States took home the silver medal, its 10th medal overall in the event.
