The blue-and-white will visit St. Joseph’s College on Friday afternoon, before playing an All-Star team from U-LAX New York on Saturday night on Randall’s Island. On Sunday, Israel will compete in an international friendly against the 7th-ranked Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Women to wrap up a busy weekend.

The weekend also features tryouts for Israel’s U-13 team which will be competing at the World Series of Youth Lacrosse, as well as exhibitions and training sessions at the Masters, Boys and Girls U-19, and Girls U-15 levels.

The event is being held to raise awareness and funds in support of the Women’s National Team’s participation at the 2017 FIL Women’s World Cup.
