The Lions will play the upcoming 2023 Spring season in the OSFL - Ontario Spring Football League and the CCWFL - Central Canadian Women's Football League. Each team is guaranteed 8 games before playoffs.

Our 2023 Spring/Summer Tackle program is composed of 6 different teams. These are Full Tackle programs. Please be advised that, as in any sport, playing time on a team is not guaranteed. Players who are new to a football program or moving up from a younger age division may see less playing time. However, by attending all practices, working hard and being determined all players can improve their position on the team. An overview can be found below.
