Chronological Order

The 2024 World Lacrosse Women’s U20 Championship rolls into day three with another eight matchups on deck on a rainy day in Hong Kong, China.

The top four seeds are all back in action, and the schedule is littered with playoff implications in all four pools.

New Zealand looks to bounce back against an Italy team that is already 1-0 in an intriguing matchup. Wales is also looking to bounce back against a Chinese Taipei team that looked very impressive on opening day against Korea. Japan needs a win to keep its playoff hopes in tact.

The host Hong Kong, China returns to action at 5 p.m with a win already banked, but will face a stern test against an England team that looked sharp on day two. Australia, another impressive day two debutant, can improve to 2-0 with a win over a motivated Scotland team.

Germany takes on China in what should be the game of the window – Germany is a top-ten finisher from the last edition of the championship looking to get its first win while China flashed an impressive gear in its day one win over Israel.

The United States and Canada headline the late window again against a pair of strong PALA teams in Puerto Rico and the Haudenosaunee.

All games can be streamed on WL TV at TV.WorldLacrosse.sport. A full championship pass costs $15 USD.
