Corona COVID-19 - Notice to all OMLA members
UPDATED 13 March 2020 3:20 PM
As of today, we have made the difficult but necessary decision to direct our leagues to pause all sanctioned in-person lacrosse activities (try-outs, training sessions, scrimmages, practices, games, etc.) effective immediately and until April 5th, 2020. Online activities, including promotion, registration and planning may continue during this period. In the meantime, we intend to continue preparing for the upcoming season while monitoring the situation. We encourage our members to visit ontariolacrosse.com for the latest news, updates and return-to-program information as we approach the 2020 season.

----- earlier update -----
We understand that this is a busy and exciting time of year as lacrosse players and teams prepare for the 2020 season. At this time, the OLA has not cancelled any events or games, but we continue to observe the cautious advice and direction of Ontario Ministry of Health, Public Health Agency of Canada, the Ontario Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Culture and Tourism and the Canadian Lacrosse Association. Should the public health situation change or should we be advised of new information that may cause us to alter our direction by any governing body, further decisions may be made and communicated to our members.
Please check this website regularly for updates on this issue.
