On 4th June the Scotland Senior Lacrosse Squad are taking on one of the top USA University teams, George Masons, who are touring across the UK for a couple of weeks. This is going to be a very exciting match and we are therefore keen to get lots of supporters along to watch and cheer us on!!

We also see this as a great opportunity to exhibit the game to all the young players in Scotland. It provide the perfect chance for them to watch lacrosse played at the top, international level so that they can aspire to follow in the footsteps of the players and represent Scotland when they are older.
