The World Lacrosse Box Championships (WLBC),[1] formerly known as the World Indoor Lacrosse Championship (WILC), is an international box lacrosse tournament sponsored by World Lacrosse that is held every four years. Since the first tournament in 2003, Canada has won all five gold medals and is undefeated in all games.[2] Canada hosted the first two tournaments in 2003 and 2007, the Czech Republic hosted in 2011, the Onondaga Nation, south of Syracuse, New York, hosted in 2015.[3] The 2019 WILC was held in Langley, British Columbia, Canada.[4]

The winner of the WLBC wins the Cockerton Cup, named for All-American lacrosse player Stan Cockerton.

In August 2023, World Lacrosse announced 2024 World Lacrosse Box Championships for men’s and women’s box lacrosse will held at September 20-29, 2024, in Utica, New York, United States. This is the sixth championship for men and first for women in the discipline of box lacrosse, a historic first for men’s and women’s world titles to be decided at the same event.[5]
