YMCA-YWCA of the National Capital Region Team of the Month (July 2018): Gloucester Griffins Bantam 1 Lacrosse Team
The Gloucester Griffins Bantam 1 Lacrosse Team celebrated Canada Day by playing our national summer sport, complete with the fireworks of a tournament victory to finish the day. At the June 29-July 1 Hamilton Lacrosse 2018 Super Series event, the Griffins advanced out of their pool with Wallaceburg, North Shore and Hamilton to reach the playoff round, and then downed Windsor in the semis and Niagara in the final to win their division crown. The team’s strong performances this year have put them in the running to qualify for the ‘A’ level provincial championships – thought to be the first Gloucester team in 20 years to do so.
