“We couldn’t be more excited to broadcast our entire event to the world so fans from all over can follow the action in Denver,” said World Series of Youth Lacrosse founder Jake Steinfeld. “Our championship game will be live on ESPN2 on the Fourth of July, and now through this partnership with The Laxworm Radio Experience, fans can listen to all of our exciting games throughout the event.”
“We are thrilled to be a part of the first-ever World Series of Youth Lacrosse and look forward to providing fans all over the world with access to such a monumental event,” said Dan Matthews, creator and co-host of Lacrosse Talk & Director of Programming for The Laxworm Radio Experience.
