We are delighted to report that 2023 leaver, Eleanor MacPhee, has been selected as one of just three goalies in the first ever 44-player England women’s training squad, ahead of the 2024 World Lacrosse Box Championships in Utica, USA.
The selection was made following a series of trial sessions in October, and this group will be taken forward towards the Championships in September 2024; the squad will be whittled down to a smaller final Championship squad early next year.
The 2024 World Lacrosse Box Championships will take place between 20-29 September in Utica, USA where women’s and men’s competitions will run concurrently for the first time.
Sophie Appleby, Director of Sport, says: “We’re all absolutely delighted for Eleanor - this is a testament to the hard work and dedication she has put in over a number of years in the sport. All at SGA are very proud of her and we look forward to hearing about her progress and experiences with this squad in the future”.
