There were two small programs operating out of British Columbia and Ontario. The women who played in these programs were mainly versed in box lacrosse.
One day, a huge opportunity presented itself. Brine had stepped up to sponsor the first Women’s World Lacrosse Championship. The Canadian women wanted to be part of this historic event – The IFWLA Brine Women’s Lacrosse World Cup.
Members of that storied team were brought together to tell their story in celebration of Women’s History Month. The interview is an exclusive two-part presentation that will take the viewer through the incredible story of committing to England, forming the team and being labelled the team most likely to finish last in the tournament.
Part 1 provides all the background leading up to tournament play in Nottingham, England.
Part 2 will pick up as the official games begin and it will air the following Wednesday. The whole story is compelling and “must” viewing for all those who have interest in Canada’s lacrosse history.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
