Join us for an evening of celebration and camaraderie as the Ontario Lacrosse Association honours the individuals whose dedication, achievements and contributions have helped shape our game.
The 2026 Ontario Lacrosse Hall of Fame Induction & Awards Dinner will take place on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at White Oaks Resort & Spa in Niagara-on-the-Lake, during the OLA Annual General Meeting weekend.
This year's celebration will honour the Ontario Lacrosse Hall of Fame Class of 2026:
Bruce Codd – Orangeville (Player)
Anthony Cosmo – Mississauga (Player)
Shawn Williams – Brooklin (Player)
Larry King – Akwesasne (Player)

The evening will also recognize recipients of some of the OLA's most prestigious awards, including the Keeper of the Game Award, Lacrosse Person of the Year Award, and our Coaches of the Year from across the province.
We will also recognize the recipients of the Jamieson Kuhlmann, Chuck Rowan and Barb Boyes Student-Athlete Bursary Awards, celebrating excellence both on and off the field.
Whether you are attending to celebrate someone being honoured, reconnect with fellow members of the lacrosse community or simply show your support for the individuals who have made a lasting impact on our game, we invite you to join us for this special evening.
The Hall of Fame & Awards Dinner is a wonderful opportunity to bring together players, coaches, officials, volunteers, club representatives and supporters from across the province, while supporting the Ontario Lacrosse Hall of Fame & Museum and its important work to preserve the history and legacy of lacrosse in Ontario.
