Women's Lacrosse World Cup
- Women's Lacrosse World Cup
The Women's Lacrosse World Cup is sponsored by the International Federation of Women's Lacrosse Associations every 4 years. The latest World Cup was held from June 23 to July 2, 2005 in the United States and was won by Australia.
Jen Adams and Sarah Forbes led Australia to a record 14-7 win over the USA in the 2005 final of the World Cup, before 6,000 at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, Annapolis, Maryland on July 2. The final score was the biggest winning margin in World Cup history and only the second time that the USA has not won the Cup, both times when the event was held in the USA and both times to the Australians (the other time was 1986 in Philadelphia).
The IFWLA World Cup began in 1982 where it was hosted in Nottingham, England. [http://www.lacrosseworldcup2009.com/ The 2009 IFWLA World Cup] will be the eighth world cup and will be hosted in Prague in the Czech Republic.
