History:
The year 1962 marks the year when
the Australian Women's Lacrosse Council
(AWLC) was founded. Mrs. Joyce Parker
became its first ever president. In
1965, AWLC achieved greater exposure
after participating in the annual
interstate match between VIC and DA
during the Men’s Lacrosse Carnival
in Perth, Western Australia. The Western
Australians subsequently joined the
AWLC, formed their own organization,
and went on to win the first ever
Women’s Lacrosse Championship.
The Tasmania Women’s Association
then joined AWLC in 1978 as a full
member. Other significant events for
the AWLC include the conduct of its
first ever U16 National Championships
in 1970; and its first U19 interstate
match in 1982.
