The RMLL
Executive would like to thank the 92 people who donated their time on
May 13th and volunteered as the RMLL Course Marshals at the Forzani's
35th Annual Mother's Day Run and Walk. Without your volunteer
commitment, the Run and Walk would not have gone forward...so thank you
to all!
In addition to helping in the fundraising
of new equipment for the Neonatal
Intensive Care Units at the 3 Calgary hospitals, hopefully we have also
increased the awareness of Canada's National Summer Sport, as well as
our Provincial League. Thank you as well, to Laurie Houghton,
RMLL Promotions Committee, who had the lead role in organizing the RMLL
Fitness Booth and the Course Marshal Volunteers.

Shaw Cable will be featuring the National Lacrosse League Championship presented by Reebok Lacrosse on PPV (free to customers). They will only be featuring the event in Alberta per content rights holder allowances. They will also only be featuring it in HD on Channell 303.
The game will be broadcasted on the CBS Sports Network. CBS Sports Network is available in Canada on Rogers, Cogeco, Bell Express Vue (HD channel 1432, SD channel 413), Eastlink, Sasktel & BellAliant TV.. The game will also be available on the www.nll.com Network.
In addition to television Rush Fans can listen to the NLL Championship presented by Reebok Lacrosse on The Team 1260 with host Jason Gregor.
Rush fans can watch the game at KRUSH Lounge. The Rush have partnered with KRUSH Lounge (16648 109 Avenue, beside the Mayfield Inn & Trade Centre) to broadcast the game. Hosted by the Edmonton Crush Dance Team, Krush Lounge will have the game up on their new HD 120' projection style screen along with an additional 10 HD TV's throughout the lounge. There will be Rush Hour food and beverage specials with promo items up for grabs all night. This is an 18+ event. Seating is limited, so please get there early. Doors open at 4:00 p.m. For the first time in franchise history, the Edmonton Rush will be going for the National Lacrosse League's Champion's Cup as they meet the Rochester Knighthawks in the 2012 title matchup. The Rush, who entered the NLL playoffs as the lowest-seeded team, earned their shot at the championship following a massive 15-3 win over the Minnesota Swarm in the West Division Final last Saturday in St. Paul. That win gave Edmonton its first NLL West Division crown. Rochester made its way to the Champion's Cup game by knocking off the defending champion Toronto Rock 17-13 in Toronto to take the East Division honor. The Knighthawks will be going after their third NLL title, following up on victories in the 1997 and 2007 Champion's Cup game.
Edmonton, which lost the West Division Final in overtime to Washington in 2010, has been on a tear in the playoffs. Prior to the Rush's drubbing of Minnesota, they dropped the Calgary Roughnecks in the West Semifinal, ousting one of the favorites for the 2012 title. The playoff success has dramatically turned around a so-so regular season for the Rush when they finished 6-10 and entered the playoffs having lost two straight.
