Flinders University Lacrosse Club

𝗦𝗔 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗚𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗦!

Team Flinders have brought home the Damien Sellar Memorial Trophy for the first time since 2014 with a thorough 21-13 win over Adelaide University at the SA Challenge lacrosse event on Friday 20 March.

With single teams from Adelaide Uni (freshly merged with UniSA) and Flinders entered, the trophy was contested in a single match of four quarters rather than the tournament format of past years.

After several heart-breaking near misses in recent years, Flinders broke out of the blocks to open up a 7-2 lead at quarter time, extending to 11-4 at the main break.

Adelaide Uni gave a stronger showing in the second half, but could only go goal for goal as Flinders responded to every Adelaide attack, and ending AU's dominance of the event with its emphatic win.

We are hoping to return to the national stage with the UniSport Nationals being staged in Perth in September. If you are an enrolled university student at Flinders and interested in taking part in this epic event, please get in touch with us now as we want to lock in our team early!

We are looking for a couple more females to join our team for the UniSport Australia Nationals being held on the Gold Coast later this year!

No previous lacrosse experience is necessary, just bring your positive vibes!

If you would like to be part of the unforgettable and unmissable student experience that is the UniSport Nationals, get in touch with us ASAP!

It’s not long until UniSport 2025 and our teams are filling fast!!

We are looking for a few more student athletes to complete some teams heading up to the Gold Coast in 2025! 🏅
