The England senior men’s team travel to Amsterdam this weekend to take on Norway and Netherlands at the inaugural Netherlands Lacrosse Invitational.

Taking place at the Sportpark de Eendracht on the outskirts of the Dutch capital, England will play four games over Saturday and Sunday taking in two against Norway and two against hosts Netherlands.

The invitational competition comes less than a year after Netherlands travelled to Cardiff, Wales to take part in the Home Internationals Series against Scotland, Wales, England senior, and England U20.

At that competition, the England senior men’s team claimed a 14-4 victory against the Netherlands as they went unbeaten in their three competition games.

The Netherlands Lacrosse Invitational is a great opportunity for all three teams to experience a high level of European lacrosse with the next European Championship in Hungary less than a year away.

At the last European Championship in 2016, Norway finished 12th, Netherlands finished 7th, and England claimed their ninth title.

Spectators are welcome at all games during the Netherlands Lacrosse Invitational with free parking on site and a canteen with drinks and snacks available throughout.
