European Champions

Walcountians Blues Womens Lacrosse crowned Euro champs for the second consecutive year!

Our all conquering women's lacrosse 1st team have done it again! Having retained their national champions status earlier this year, the squad went to Barcelona at the beginning of September to defend their euro crown.

Read the brief report from the England Lacrosse website :

​

Blues Lacrosse defeated Rotterdam Jaguars from the Netherlands 11-12 in a tight final to retain The Ken Galluccio Cup in Barcelona, Spain on Sunday.

​

Alex Drewe and Ellie Pobjoy both scored four with Annie Mather, Chloe Wyner, Sofia Best, and Miho Sakurai getting on the scoresheet too as their Blues team overcame a dogged and determined Rotterdam side who had scored 40 goals and conceded just 18 in their five games before the final.

​

Blues had been no pushover either as they had claimed victory in all four of their matches prior to the final, scoring 37 goals and conceding 22.

​

This is Blues’ second consecutive Ken Galluccio Cup triumph after last year’s victory over Edinburgh University in the final saw them lift the trophy for the first time.
