We focus on both high performance and participation, so whether you are looking to play sport to a high standard or be a part of one of the biggest social societies at Trent, NTU Lacrosse has something for everyone.

We offer bursaries for talented lacrosse players. We welcome applications from all players, which will then be assessed for suitability for a scholarship award. Further details on scholarships, including how to apply.
