Lacrosse, which is Canada’s national summer  sport, is not included at the 2025 Canada Summer Games.

Lacrosse, also known as the Creators game, was invented and played by Indigenous communities all across Canada. The game has been played for over 500 years and is part of our history.

In 2022, at the Canada games held in Niagara, 9 provinces sent teams to compete in men’s and women’s lacrosse. This was the first time women competed in Lacrosse at the Summer Games.

Please include lacrosse at the 2025 Canada Summer Games to be held in St John’s.
