Team History
The Senior Jamaican Men’s Lacrosse Team first entered the World Lacrosse Championships in 2018 in Netanya, Israel. The team finished with a record of 7-1 in it’s first championship tournament. The Jamaican Men were ranked 13th in the world after their first event!
In 2022, World Lacrosse implemented Regional Qualifiers for entry into the 2023 World Lacrosse Championships. The team traveled to Medellin, Colombia for the Pan American Lacrosse Association Regional Qualifier. Team Jamaica finished the tournament with a Silver Medal and a spot in the 2023 World Lacrosse Championships in San Diego, California.
Team Jamaica made history at the 2023 World Championships! The team went undefeated in pool play, and beat team Italy to earn a meeting with Team Canada in the round of 8! Although they fell to Canada, and lost a tough overtime game to Israel, Team Jamaica finished the tournament ranked #8 in the world! This is the highest a Jamaican Men’s sports Team has finished in a World Championship in Jamaican sports history!
