Irish Lacrosse Union Senior Flags Fixtures 1900 [Ref: 1]
Report
The draw for the Semi-Finals of the Irish Lacrosse Union Senior Flags (Championship) in 1900 was Ards v Ormeau and Instonians v Collegians. The final was to be played on 21 July 1900, but may have been pushed back.
The Irish Lacrosse Union was the Men’s Lacrosse Association in Ireland from the Late 19th to Early 20th Centuries. The Senior shield was the first level league competition.
Like the Gaelic Athletic Association, the Irish Lacrosse Union season was divided into an opening season (Shield – League Competition), and closing season (Flags – Knockout / Elimination Competition). The Irish Lacrosse Union had two levels, and a representative competition between County Down and County Antrim. It was Men’s only.
