Lacrosse in New Zealand started in 2000 with the formation of a men's lacrosse league in Auckland. The New Zealand Women's Lacrosse Association was formed a year later in 2001 and established a women's league in Auckland.
From the very beginning, the NZWLA appointed Junior Development Officers to promote the sport in schools and we now have a very successful school league that runs between April and July and a one day schools tournament. The number of participating schools has grown from 4 to 20 in just four years.
New Zealand sent a women's team to the World Cup in 2005 for the first time.
