“THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF AN EXCITING, NEW ERA FOR WORLD LACROSSE AND LACROSSE PLAYERS AROUND THE GLOBE,” SAID WORLD LACROSSE PRESIDENT SUE REDFERN. “AS THE NEWEST OFFERING FROM OUR INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION, WORLD LACROSSE SIXES IS AN IDEAL COMPLEMENT TO OUR EXISTING FIELD AND BOX DISCIPLINES. SIXES BLENDS MANY OF THE MOST POPULAR ASPECTS OF THE FIELD AND BOX GAMES AND INTRODUCES NEW ELEMENTS THAT APPEAL TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF SPORT PARTICIPANTS AND FANS.

“MANY OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL INTERNATIONAL FEDERATIONS IN SPORT ARE INTRODUCING SMALLER-SIDED VARIATIONS OF THEIR TRADITIONAL OFFERINGS IN ORDER TO MEET THE INTEREST AND DEMAND OF TODAY’S ATHLETES, AND THAT’S WHAT SIXES HELPS US ACHIEVE.”
