CANADA

As an International Indoor Junior Lacrosse (IIJL) Founding Member Nation, the Canadian Lacrosse League (CLL) represents Canada at the IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship (WJLC) and all IIJL events, while administering major junior box lacrosse domestically in Canada.

IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship

The IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship (WJLC) first took shape in 2015 as the U-19 World Lacrosse Challenge and took place in Six Nations of the Grand River, located outside of Brantford, ON at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena. Originally, the tournament was to be held in conjunction with the 2015 FIL World Indoor Lacrosse Championship (WILC) as the U-19 Indoor Lacrosse Festival in Buffalo, NY. However, when Buffalo was removed as one of two host locations, with all games moved to Syracuse/Onondaga, the festival was removed from the WILC lineup. With flights planned, the festival was moved to Six Nations and renamed the U-19 World Lacrosse Challenge. The Challenge featured 12 teams, including regional squads from Canada and Iroquois, Junior National Teams from Czech Republic, Israel, and the United States along with German club team Deutschland Adler rounding out the field. Canada West won the gold medal game while Iroquois West captured the bronze medal. 

World Junior - Interest to Participate

Players are selected to compete with Canada at the IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship by attending Regional Combines. The Regional Combines provide players with the opportunity to compete in a controlled environment, work with Canada staff, and be evaluated prior to the start of the Summer Evaluation Period. The CLL understands that not all players who have interest in competing international with Canada at the IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship may have been able to attend a Regional Combine; either due to a scheduling conflict, injury, or attending post-secondary education. 

If you are interest in competing international with Canada at the 2022 IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship in Winnipeg, MB from August 8-14, 2022 please compete the form below. 

IMPORTANT NOTICE Players are only extended invitations to compete with Canada at the IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship once their Junior A/B/C team has been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention in their respective league and/or eliminated from playoffs prior to the start of World Junior mini-camp. To reiterate, a player's priority is to win a National Championship with their Junior A/B/C team - players are not asked to "choose" between winning a National Championship with their Junior A/B/C team or winning a IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship. The World Juniors is an additional opportunity for Junior players to play meaningful lacrosse in August on a marquee platform.  

This email will be added to a Player Profile and should be the player's personal email, NOT a parent/guardian's email.

Please ensure you are selecting the correct year of birth.

Submission of this Interest to Participate form does not guarantee a prospective player a spot at the Canada roster for the IIJL World Junior Lacrosse Championship or serve as registration. Once an Interest to Participate form is submitted Canada staff is notified and they will conduct their due diligence. Qualified prospective players will be contacted by Canada staff once their Junior A/B/C team has been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention in their respective league and/or eliminated from playoffs prior to the start of World Junior mini-camp.
