Canada men's national lacrosse team

The Canadian men's national lacrosse team represents Canada in men's international lacrosse competitions. It is governed by the Canadian Lacrosse Association, which is a member of World Lacrosse, the international governing body for lacrosse. Canada has traditionally been one of the leading nations in international play and has placed among the top three at the World Lacrosse Championship every year since the tournament's inaugural year in 1967. The team has a long-standing rivalry with the United States national lacrosse team, as the two frequently face each other. It is primarily made up of professional players who compete in the Premier Lacrosse League, although many players also play in the National Lacrosse League and are members of the Canada national indoor lacrosse team. Past squads have included lacrosse greats such as Gary Gait, Paul Gait and Tom Marechek. Canada also had two representatives at the 1904 Summer Olympics.
