I was made aware of the world lacrosse championships (held every four years) because of the new stamp issue.
Canada Post issue stamp

It's held in London Ontario from July 14 to 22.

The London Free Press has a gallery of players to watch from around the world.

I'm up here for them... Tomorrow is a big game: Canada-United States. Judging by how Canada has played so far I'm thinking a big win for the U.S.

The US crushed the competition in their first two games scoring 25 and 20 goals against England and Australia. They are the heavy favorites it seems.

The Canadian coach about the US
"They are the world champions and they are the best at every position and every location. You can't go against them one-on-one. If you beat them it will be with good ball movement and crisp passes to go into the openings."

Don't know if Canada took things easy in the last quarter vs the Iroquois. They lead 10-3 after 3 quarters but won only 12-8.

It must have been an exciting end of the US-Canada game. US win 13-12 and score with only three seconds left!

Awful game though... This whole tournament the officials have been inserting themselves into games too much.
