Intermediate Nepean Knights lacrosse team wins provincial championship




The Intermediate Nepean Knights lacrosse team has won the provincial “C” level championship at the Ontario Lacrosse Festival in Whitby. Nepean defeated Cornwall 5-3 in the one-game final. Intermediate lacrosse players range in age from 17-21. The Knights rolled through the tournament with wins over Hamilton #2 (13-2), Sudbury (7-3), Uxbridge (9-0), and a semi-final win over the Toronto Stars (3-1). Nepean’s only loss was to Mimico (3-0) in the pool stage. This marks the first time since 1991 that Nepean has won an intermediate level provincial lacrosse championship. It’s also the second consecutive year a Nepean team has returned home with an Ontario championship banner; in 2009 the novice Knights #2 team won the “E” level crown. Read More...

2010 Fall Field Lacrosse Program

The Knights are once again running a fall field lacrosse program open to all Knights players. We will be making a few changes this year to help the program run a bit more smoothly. As always, we are in need of volunteers, especially coaches. We only have a small contingent of coaches and in order for the program to continue, new coaches must come forward. Volunteers will be paired up with and mentored by more experienced coaches to gain the necessary experience to eventually take on their own team. Please see the Field Lacrosse Page for more details.

Knights in the Media

The Knights are trying to get the word out to the media about our lacrosse programs, including newspapers and radio spots. If you hear or see Knights news in the media, let us know and if you have a story, that you want to share, such as the one below from Peewee House League player Michael M., please send it to our media relations person, Matt Firth at Knights Media Relations.

"Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that last week we heard the results of my sons lacrosse house league game announced on the CBC radio's sports report and we were just thrilled. Michael listens every morning to John Hancock's reports to catch up on the hockey games before going to school. When he heard his own lacrosse team being mentioned it was really exciting. Many thanks to the publicity representative for making an 11 year old feel like a star! This is our first experience with lacrosse and my son is having a blast, we thank you and the all the team that has put together this year's house league,
Heather M. and Michael M."


Arena Damages - Important Message to Parents and Players

Recently there were signs damaged at John Mlacak Arena by players throwing the balls in the arena. The City has informed us that not only are the Knights responsible for cost of replacing the signs, but we will also lose access to the arena if there is any further damage caused by lacrosse players. There are only a few arenas available to us play lacrosse in and we cannot afford to lose access to any of those, nor can we afford to pay for damages. Parents and players are reminded that there will be no wall-ball outside of the arena floor, and parents and players will be held responsible for any damage incurred.
