It's all about that competitive edge... or well in this case, competitive ice

What is the "ICE" Program?

Competitive or what we at TBLL like to call "Rep," is a non-mandatory and totally optional team to play for! This travel dedicated team will look to play outside of Northern Ontario and does require extra time dedication and cost. In 2003, TBLL decided that we needed to provide our athletes with different programming - something a little more competitive. With all our love for the game, the talent and dedication of both our volunteers and players, ICE Lacrosse was forged. Over the years TBLL has seen some very talented lacrosse players (we are even proud to say some have moved on to play university and college level lacrosse all over North America). Throughout the years, TBLL has had a number of successful women's and men's ICE teams. We continue to look forward to producing the next generation of ICE players. Competitive or what we at TBLL like to call "Rep," is a non-mandatory and totally optional ICE is a REP or "Competitive" team that requires additional time, dryland, and potential travel commitments. The ICE program and its coaches aim to develop players basic skills and understanding of the game.

So what does this entail?

We work with each individual player and their family to determine what path is the best forward. TBLL is proud to offer ICE Rep lacrosse in some age divisions and currently are working towards more. Our teams look to travel 1-2 times in the season outside of Northern Ontario, require extra practice time and have associated costs with the program. For players who do not have options within the TBLL for ICE Rep play, we will work with our board and the Ontario Lacrosse Association to determine what is the next zone to have an available team. Teams outside of TBLL will have their own set of expectations and requirements that will need to be met by the player and family.

We always looking forward to providing more lacrosse options in Northern Ontario. If this program interests you or you are looking for more information, please reach out.
