  • Founders Cup 2014 Halifax NS
    Founders Cup 2014 Halifax NS I was the ALA Representative at the 2014 Founders Cup. As the ALA Rep I had to report to Doug Luey who was the CLA Convenor for the 2014 Founders Cup with any questions he might have for team Alberta. I sat on the Discipline committee with Dave Veron from the OLA and Doug Luey. We only had 1 issue to deal with and that was with a Coach from Six Nations who ended up with a 2 game suspension for his actions. The host committee group lead by Kevan Mills did a real good job keeping all the teams happy. Transportation seemed to work fine for the teams to make it to the rink on time. All the games were played at the Halifax Forum once they got the lights turned up the rink seemed fine. I did not think the games were well attended not many people in the stands. There were 3 teams from the RMLL. TBS Rampage Alberta, Swat Saskatoon, Blizzard Manitoba The start of the games TBS Rampage played Nova Scotia Rampage came up short in a 10-9 Loss to start the 2014 Founders Cup. Game 2 TBS Rampage played Saskatchewan Swat and came away with 10-7 Win good game back and forth. Game 3 TBS Rampage played Seneca War Chiefs form the ILA they battled to a 8-8 Tie good come back game. Game 4 TBS Rampage played the Six Nation Rebels game was 15-5 for the Rebels still a good game to watch and learn.

National Championship, being hosted by the Calgary Mountaineers Jr. B. Lacrosse Club. This is the first time this prestigious National Championship has been hosted in Southern Alberta. The games will be played at the Max Bell Arena from August 17-23, 2015. We want to show the rest of Canada that special brand of Western Hospitality that has made Calgary famous and we need YOUR help to do it. The Hosting Committee is looking for approximately 120 lacrosse-loving ambassadors to help with a variety of tasks. There is something for everyone who wants to get involved. Volunteer roles include, for example, working at the door or silent auction table, selling 50/50 tickets or tournament merchandise, providing on site information or security services, assisting teams in their dressing rooms, being involved in game operations and logistics or helping with various statistics, website, social media and other administrative roles. We are looking for volunteers who are prepared to commit to a minimum of 3-4 shifts during the week, with each shift being between 4 and 8 hours depending upon the role. If you’re interested in spending some quality fun time to help make this event a HUGE success then send us an email at [email protected] or call, John Tyrrell at 403-461-4767, to let us know you’re interested. You will be contacted in the early Spring once the volunteer positions and schedules have been finalized so we can find a spot that works for you.
