'''INS ''Shardul (L16)''''' is the lead ship of the [[Shardul class- Large Landing Ship Tank|Shardul class LST(L)]] of the [[Indian Navy]]. Its name means "Royal Bengal tiger".

'''Warrior Lacrosse''' is a manufacturer of [[lacrosse]] equipment and [[clothing|apparel]] based in [[Warren, Michigan]]. It was founded in [[1993]] by Dave Morrow. Warrior Lacrosse was acquired by [[New Balance]] on [[February 1]], [[2004]].

==History==

It sponsors several college lacrosse teams as well as [[Major League Lacrosse]] (MLL) and the [[Canadian Lacrosse Association|Canadian Men's National Team]]. It was the title sponsor of the [[2006 World Lacrosse Championship|2006 Warrior World Lacrosse Championship]] in [[London, Ontario]]. It is also the presenting sponsor of [[ESPN]]'s annual coverage of the [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]] men's lacrosse championships.

*The first-of-the-class Landing ship tank (Large), Shardul (Royal Bengal tiger), was launched in 03 April 2004. The ship was handed over to the navy for trials on 3rd November 2006 and commissioned into the Indian Navy, on 4th January 2007 by the defence minister A.K Antony in Karwar at the [[INS Kadamba]] base.

In [[2005]], New Balance (Warrior Lacrosse's parent company) acquired Innovative Hockey, but renamed it using the Warrior brand, as '''Warrior Hockey'''. Contrary to popular belief, Warrior Hockey is now a [[Division (business)|division]] of New Balance and not a subsidiary of it or part of Warrior Lacrosse.
