Championship Hosting
As the owners of all world championship events, World Lacrosse grants hosting rights to cities and National Governing Bodies through a bidding process. WL considers this opportunity a partnership between the host city, NGB, venue and World Lacrosse. Each stakeholder has its part to play in delivering each world-class event, and ensuring a fair and consistent competition for athletes, a memorable and enjoyable fan experience, a positive impact to the host city and NGB, and a sport legacy that expands access to lacrosse and its benefits across the local region.
