News Summary:
World Lacrosse plans to host an Educator Course across three days in September 2026 (September 8, 15, and 22) to support the development of Men's Field Lacrosse, with Canada’s Ian Wilson leading the sessions. Previously, on May 29, 2026, World Lacrosse established the Legend Award to recognize individuals whose careers defined excellence in international competition and whose contributions elevated the sport globally, serving as a precursor to an eventual Hall of Fame. Earlier in May, on May 26, World Lacrosse announced a partnership with Hatteras, designating the Tinton Falls, New Jersey-based print services provider as its Official Print and Signage Supplier for championships and daily operational needs. This followed the May 13 announcement that six English officials, including experienced umpires Paul Bibby, Annabel Campbell, Paul Jenkins, Helen Mavin, and Brucie Morris, would officiate at the 2026 Division 1 and Division 2 World Lacrosse Women’s Championships in Wrocław, Poland, from July 11-18. On May 12, World Lacrosse adopted a comprehensive set of athlete safety measures, establishing certified equipment standards across all sport disciplines at its owned and sanctioned events, an initiative it described as its most significant athlete safety measure to date.
