The Canadian men's national lacrosse team participates in international competitions. The team is governed by the Canadian Lacrosse Association which itself is a member of the Federation of International Lacrosse, the international governing body for lacrosse. Traditionally Canada has been one of the leading nations in international play, placing among the top three at the World Lacrosse Championship every year since the tournament's inaugural year in 1967. Canada has a long-standing rivalry with the United States national lacrosse team as they both frequently find themselves facing off against each other.


The team is primarily made up of professional players who compete in Major League Lacrosse. However, many players also play in the National Lacrosse League and are members of Canada national indoor lacrosse team.


Past Team Canada squads have included lacrosse greats such as Gary Gait, Paul Gait and Tom Marechek.
