The WLL Junior Championships
A New Stage for Girls Lacrosse
Program Overview
Something girls lacrosse has never had before.
It's here. An experience unlike any other.
The WLL Junior Championships brings the full Junior Championships experience to girls lacrosse. Developmental training camps led by WLL professionals. A live draft night where athletes find out which junior WLL club they'll represent. A championship weekend at a WLL venue. And a championship game streamed live on the ESPN app. We're giving the next generation of girls lacrosse players a stage that's always been missing, until now.
This inaugural year is open to high school grad years 2033, 2034, 2035.
This is a first-of-it's-kind experience developed by the women playing the game at the highest level.
“I’m so excited and honored to serve as the Master of Ceremonies for the first-ever WLL Jr. Championships! This event is such a fun and meaningful way to create more opportunities for young athletes to compete, connect and experience the game at a higher level. I love that it gives these girls something bigger to dream toward - showing them what’s possible and inspiring them to keep chasing their goals.”
— Ally Mastroianni, California Palms

The Draft
Players selected into the player pool after training camp evaluation will get picked by junior WLL teams in a draft on PLL's YouTube channel in either February or March, 2027. The draft features some of the biggest names in the sport and premieres each division's rosters for the WLL Junior Championships tournament happening in 2027.
