Hiya, I was mixed lacrosse captain at Bristol Uni last year. If you were planning on having another freshers'/beginners' tournament I know that we'd be able to field a few teams and could return the favour of hosting too.

Re: World Cup
The results are coming in on twitter in dribs and drabs but being summarised at: http://www.2013worldlacrosse.com/results.html Generally disappointed by the lack of updates/coverage, it would be nice to get highlights of each match or a game summary at least. Some quite impressive scores already, es...

Re: South West Contact - 2012/13
Hey, I'm one of the Mixed Captains for Bristol Uni next year. We're keen in having a bunch of friendlies and tournaments in the SW throughout 2012/13.

Re: Head Gear for Women's Lacrosse

Most girls who play in the UK don't wear the head gear unless a coach really wants them to.
