Pandemic axes Sun Devils, Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League season
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Junior lacrosse is the latest sport to be wiped off the local sporting calendar following the cancellation of the 2020 Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League season.
RMLL president Duane Bratt made the decision official on Monday with a post on the league’s website outlining hopes for a delayed season that was determined to be unfeasible.
“As a consequence of these decisions from government and lacrosse governing authorities, the RMLL, in consultation with, and the agreement of all the divisions, regrettably is formally cancelling its 2020 season. While there was some hope that some type of modified schedule could be maintained for July-August, that is no longer an option.”
The cancellation extends to the RMLL’s Junior ‘B’ division, which means the Medicine Hat Sun Devils will not take to the floor this year.
