Well it’s been 10 full days of lacrosse, starting with the Peewee Provincials back on August 1st. We had everything thrown in, including the Tykes, the Nationals and all of the Peewee, Bantam, Midget and Intermediate Girls teams.

Tonight the Clarington Novice Gaels defeated the Burlington Chiefs in the Novice ”A” final by a score of 6-3.  It was a highly entertaining game, with Clarington holding a 2-1 lead after one period.  Burlington scored a couple more late in the third period, while the Gaels ripped off four more over the last two periods to secure the win.

The Gaels capped off a very successful season for them winning the Championship, and ended a very successful Lacrosse Festival for yet another year.  We were spoiled to some great lacrosse over the past ten days by all of the young boys and gilrs that participated.

Congratulations to all the participants from all of the Provinces on a great display of sportsmanship, and as Messer always says, “Athleticism, and Skill”.
