Apply to play at The Fly 2024
It’s official. Sixes Lacrosse will be showcased at the Olympic Games in LA in 2028.
That means you’ve got just under five years to get involved in the Olympic version of the sport and brush up your skills before you could be on the field in LA.
It’s a good job the world’s first and the UK’s only national Sixes league, The Fly, is right on your doorstep then, and taking place once again in 2024 on 11 or 12 May, 18 or 19 May, and 1 & 2 June!
To coincide with this huge announcement, we’re delighted to announce that we are now inviting open player applications for The Fly 2024.
The 2024 competition will be taking place across three competition dates (11 or 12 May, 18 or 19 May, 1 & 2 June) where we’ll see our four men’s and women’s teams compete once again for the The Fly Championship.
The Fly is committed to placing players at the heart of our event, showcasing the best and brightest talent in the UK and the world, while supporting our aspiring athletes to develop and achieve within a performance environment.
The Fly has provided the platform for international Sixes stars to shine at The World Games and World Lacrosse Super Sixes events, and now you’ve got the chance to take to the same field in 2024.
The best Sixes players in the UK and the world will be on display this summer delivering high-level, high-intensity, and high-drama lacrosse in front of big crowds.
Player applications will be assessed anonymously by a selection panel to identify the top athletes across each of the men’s and women’s game to progress into the selection pool, ensuring an appropriate standard of competition that gives opportunities to both established internationals, and the brightest young talent coming through to be the future of the sport.
The Fly would encourage players from all backgrounds and experiences to apply and we welcome applications from players all across the UK, as well as players from throughout the international lacrosse community.
Player applications are open until Sunday 12 November.
