IT ALSO PROVES THE OLD ADAGE TRUE: “IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME” // By Angela Rotundo here is no doubt that Canadian kids T from coast to coast have fallen in love with lacrosse. Unfortunately, in a few communities throughout Ontario, there isn’t anywhere to play — at least that was the case in three Ontario suburban communities where lacrosse-loving kids had to settle for the streets, their backyards or local parks to throw the ball around. Thankfully, over the past few years, this has changed in several municipalities and ju- risdictions in Ontario, where the local lacrosse community bonded together to build their own lacrosse rinks. Today the communities of Clarington, Whitby and Six Nations enjoy new lacrosse rinks, primarily because of hard work and the support of volunteers and local government. While each community may differ in terms of field, rink, size and shape they all have the same goal: to promote and grow the sport of lacrosse within their hometowns. With that de- termination, the people of Whitby, Clarington and Six Nations have shown that when it comes to lacrosse, if you build it they will come. In Clarington, for example, the community wanted to build something that would res- onate the spirit of lacrosse within their al- ready vibrant spirit.
