Sixes, created by World Lacrosse, the governing body of international lacrosse sport, is an incredibly fast-paced, compact version of lacrosse, combining the most exciting elements of the more traditional disciplines. It is characterized by an accelerated, open style of play with quick transitions and non-stop, high-scoring action.
It was created in 2018 to accelerate global growth, increase accessibility and approachability, create greater competitive balance, and reduce cost and complexity of participation and event staging. It is the next generation version of the lacrosse game. Sixes will be an Olympic Sport at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
