OSHAWA, Ont. – Oshawa will be the center of rugby action this weekend, with Durham College hosting 16 OCAA games across two days at Thompson Rugby Park.
All eight teams in the OCAA will participate in the weekend series, including Durham (Oshawa, Ont.), St. Lawrence (Kingston, Ont.), Humber (Etobicoke, Ont.), Loyalist (Belleville, Ont.), Algonquin (Ottawa, Ont.), Conestoga (Kitchener, Ont.), Seneca (North York, Ont.), and Fleming (Peterborough, Ont.).
Fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable donations in lieu of ticket purchases, as admission to all Lords games will once again be free for the 2024-25 season. The donations of food items and hygiene products will support the Durham College Student Association's Support Hub food bank.
Large crowds are expected, so fans are advised to carpool due to limited parking on-site. The Vikings Rugby Club will also host a BBQ during the event.
