Congratulations to the high school class of 2021

Entering the summer months of 2020, we made note of and congratulated members of the Ottawa Lions who were graduating high school and taking the next step in academia. We hoped that would be a one-time scenario and we could see the graduating high school cohort of 2021 get a more traditional send off. Another year has gone by and we faced constant changes that effecting nearly every aspect of our day to day lives. Schools, workplaces, and training arrangements saw openings and closures throughout the winter and spring, once again disrupting the exciting times that usually take place in the final year of high school.

The graduating year of high school and lead up towards the next stage of academia is an exciting time where many young adults develop their own individual habits and qualities that will carry them forward in University, career goals, and personal endeavours. With the official wrap up of the 2020-21 school year a week ago the Ottawa Lions Track and Field Club would like to congratulate all our graduating high school athletes as they prepare to begin their post-secondary education or venture out to begin working.

We have seen a great number of these athletes grow up from our club’s youth, foundation, and aspire programs and even some late additions who have developed a love for track and field in a very short span of time. With the summer competitive season picking up, we look forward to seeing what these athletes have in store.

Congratulations to the class of 2021!
