| British Columbia is awarded U19 World Championships |
| April 23, 2007 |
|
In a recent announcement by Peter Hobbs, president of the International Lacrosse Federation, the World Under 19 Men's Field Lacrosse Championships have been awarded to British Columbia.
The successful proposal was put forward by a group from the Tri-cities area, with the intention of hosting the games at the Coquitlam Town Centre July 3 - 12, 2008.
This event was previously held in Towson, Maryland, in 2003 with teams from Canada, the United States, Germany, Japan, Korea, England, Wales, Iroquois Nation, and Australia competing for the "Tom Hayes Trophy". The U.S. is the defending cup holder with its win over Team Canada in 2003.
With the areas rich lacrosse history, Coquitlam and the Town Center Complex were selected because it seemed the perfect venue with its existing facilities and planned updates.
Plans are under way to host a world-class lacrosse festival with other tournaments and events held in conjunction with this event.
