History

Israel became able to compete in international tournaments once the Israel Lacrosse Association was officially recognized by World Lacrosse in April 2011. [2] In preparation for its first major international tournament, the 2014 World Lacrosse Championship, Israel held tryouts in July 2013 at Wingate Institute in Netanya, selecting a roster of 46 men. [3] The roster consisted of both Israelis and non-Israeli Jews from around the world, with the majority of the roster composed of Americans. [3] Any Jew, due to being eligible for Israeli citizenship under the law of return may play for Israel in the tournament, based on the rules of World Lacrosse. [4]

World Lacrosse Championships

Israel first competed at the World Lacrosse Championship in 2014, played in Denver, Colorado. Israel finished in 7th place out of 38 teams, after winning six of their eight games played.

Israel hosted the 2018 World Lacrosse Championship in Netanya.

2014 World Lacrosse Championship

Playing in its first-ever world championships, Israel very nearly duplicated Scotland's feat, twice narrowly falling in games that could have advanced the team into the Blue Division. After reaching the quarterfinals, the Israelis led Australia in the third quarter before dropping a tough 9-8 decision. [5] Then in a placement round game, Israel made a dramatic comeback to push England to overtime before suffering a 10-9 setback. [6] Israel finished seventh after defeating Blue Division squad Japan.

2018 World Lacrosse Championship

Manchester, England was originally selected to host the tournament, but withdrew in May 2017. [8] [9] Instead, the championships took place in Netanya, Israel between 12 and 21 July 2018. [10] This was the first World Lacrosse Championship played outside of the United States, Canada, England, or Australia.

On Thursday, 12 July, the Opening Ceremony and first games were held at Netanya Stadium, a 13,610-seat multi-use stadium which opened in 2012. It served as a home field for the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championship and features 36 luxury suites, a VIP seating area, and a modern press box. The stadium serves as the home field of Maccabi Netanya FC, as well as the temporary home of Maccabi Tel Aviv FC and Hapoel Ra'anana A.F.C. [10]

From Friday, 13 July to Saturday, 21 July, the tournament games were played at Wingate Institute. Located on 50 hectares (120 acres), the Wingate Institute serves as Israel's National Centre for Physical Education and Sport. The campus doubles as both the State of Israel's primary university for the development of physical education teachers, as well as the nation's official training centre for national teams, the Israel Olympic Team, and national and international sports science conferences. The campus hosts the Israel Olympiada annually and the Maccabiah Games every four years. Wingate Stadium also serves as the home field for the Israel National Rugby Team.
