The New Huronia Braves

We are happy to showcase our new logo and new name, The Huronia Braves. As lacrosse grows in the area we wanted to reflect that in our name. We have kids playing from Midland - Penetanguishene, Tiny, Tay, Elmvale and all points inbetween. Our new name and logo reflect that.

Braves 2013 Home League exhibition night filled with action

Braves Home League started with two fun and exiciting games as the Novice and Peewee Home Teams squared off in an exhibition game Monday at the NSSRC. To those many new players and fans, we hope you better understand this game. For returning friends and fans I look forward to another fun program.

IMPORTANT INFO - Director's Message

Thank you for registering with the Braves for our 2013 season.

This year we have the arena floor 1 week earlier and have invited 2 National Lacrosse League (NLL)Stars to host a Mini-Clinic this Monday April 22nd.  The Clinic is FREE to all registered 2013 Braves players from Tyke age and up.   Brad Self & Shaun Evans from Nationwide Lacrosse come with years of professional experience that your child will benefit from!!  

The night is open for players Tyke age (born 2005 & 2006) and up.

Tyke - 6 pm

Novice & Peewee - 7 pm

Bantam, Midget & Intermediate - 8:30 pm

We will also be evaluating all players Monday night in order to establish our teams.

Provincial team practices/tryouts also start next week and all players are encouraged to participate.

Home League starts April 29th.  PLEASE NOTE: The calendar does not include 2 House League Interlock travel dates. They should be posted shortly.

There will be parent info sessions around these first practices and your team manager will be in touch with you to provide more info about the season.

I am pleased to report that at this point we are almost full at all ages. Our little braves program is again well filled. There will be 2 full House League teams for our Novice & Peewee players. We have closed registration for Bantam but are short on Midget players (15-16 yrs).  Please ask family or friends (players can start Lacrosse at any age and do well).

Finally, there is many challenges ahead as our club continues to grow.  There are many new participants, as players, bench staff and in the club management.  We all have much to learn both on and off the floor.  I ask that as a member you always give your best and represent this club and sport with the honour it deserves. 

May this season bring you all great pleasure as we play our national sport.
