Statement regarding COVID-19 & 2020 U19 Men’s World Championship
World Lacrosse is closely monitoring developments related to the outbreak of the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), including the response and recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) and leading public health authorities around the world.
We strongly encourage our member-National Governing Bodies and Continental Federations to do the same by regularly visiting the WHO web site, which provides useful recommendations and practical advice on how best to help contain the spread of the virus:

At present the 2020 U19 Men’s World Championship will go ahead as planned and will be organised in line with the guidelines we receive from the relevant healthcare authorities. A final decision on the event will be made in April. We will notify all attendees of any change in this situation.
