Olivia Mannon, a lacrosse player from Birmingham, won a silver medal as part of Team Israel in the Women's European Lacrosse Championship in Portugal. However, this year's tournament was different due to the war against Hamas and international hostility towards Israel, which affected the atmosphere. Despite this, Mannon emphasized the positive aspects of the tournament and the development of women's lacrosse in Israel. Israel placed second in the tournament and qualified for the 2026 World Lacrosse Women's Championship.
