Bowhunter Cup

TEAM USA AND IROQUOIS NATIONALS TO COMPETE FOR
BOWHUNTER CUP

Date: September 25, 2010
Where: The Oncenter War Memorial in Syracuse, NY
Faceoff: 8PM

The first-ever Bowhunter Cup, was an international ‘friendly’ between Team USA and the
Iroquois Nationals.

The game was a warm-up for the 2011 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship, which will
be held at Telsa Arena in Prague, Czech Republic on May 21-28, 2011. Australia, Canada,
Czech Republic, England, Finland and Ireland joined the United States and Iroquois
Nationals in the one-week tournament.

Team USA recently finished first at the World Field Lacrosse Championship, defeating
Canada, 12-10, in the gold medal game. The Iroquois Nationals were unable to
participate, as the British government refused to recognize the teams’ Haudenosaunee
passports or provide them with visas to travel to England.

The Iroquois Nationals are 2-0 all-time against the Americans in indoor competition,
winning in pool play in 2003 and in the semifinals in 2007.

The game was streamed live on the NLL Network.
