Our Start

Lacrosse the Nations (LtN) started as a simple conversation between our founders Brett Hughes and Brad Corrigan about inequalities they observed in the world and what they could do to make a difference. As collegiate and MLL Lacrosse players, they decided to use the thing they knew and loved best - and so began LtN’s first programs in Managua, Nicaragua.

We were founded on the belief that sport is a powerful tool. Sport unites people, creates opportunity, and instills positive change in individuals and communities. More importantly, we believe the lacrosse community is uniquely positioned to accomplish all of these things with our sport when we rally together.
