Men's Registrant No. 10 for Traditions Cup 2026: Portugal
Our final entrant to the inaugural Traditions Cup is a program on the up-and-up; Portugal finished LAXNAI with three straight wins, and they're hoping to ride that momentum to their debut in a major quadrennial Championship event in Prague this June. But first, we'll see them in Oneida Jan 9-11 at the brand-new Mary C. Winder Community Center, Oneida Indian Nation's new 90,000-square-foot facility.
19 total teams have been announced to compete on the weekend across three divisions (Mens, Womens and U-18 Boys), based on their performances at LAXNAI and during the last eight months of international club play. Check back for announcement on tournament formats, schedules, and more content.

U-18 Registrant No. 3 for Traditions Cup 2026: Haudenosaunee Jr Nationals
The tournament-qualifier format didn't quite hold at the U-18 Division, so we invited the Haudenosaunee Jr Nationals to our three-team party, with the Muskies shifting to compete under the Global flag.
The three squads will play a round-robin and two-game playoff schedule Jan 10-11 at the brand-new Mary C. Winder Community Center, Oneida Indian Nation's new 90,000-square-foot facility.
19 total teams have been invited to compete -- based on their performances at LAXNAI and during the last eight months of international club play -- across the tournament's three divisions: Men’s, Women’s, and U-18 Boys.
