A new beginning...
The U.S. competed in sanctioned international competition in the Sixes discipline for the first time during The World Games from July 7-17, 2022 in Birmingham, Ala. Sixes is a fast-paced version of the sport played on a smaller field (70 x 36 meters), with fewer players (6 v 6), a condensed game length (four 8-minute quarters) and a 30-second shot clock — all aimed at meeting goals towards potential Olympic inclusion for lacrosse.
The U.S. won the silver medal at The World Games 2022 and followed up by beating Canada in the 2023 Super Sixes competition. USA gold medalist Lindsey Munday was named the head coach for the U.S. women's sixes program in 2024 and will lead the team at the 2025 World Games in China as they build towards the inaugural World Lacrosse sixes championship and the LA 2028 Olympics.
