This horse has demonstrated athletic ability and superb knowledge of the game. The players are only half of the team that goes out to compete and without our four legged competitors we wouldn’t have this great sport. This award goes to a horse who has stood out this year as one of the best playing polocrosse horses we have in Canada.

Polocrosse Canada Special Recognition
This is a new award for the person who has contributed the most to the Sport of Polocrosse in Canada this year. This person might be someone who works hard at the Polocrosse Canada level getting all the logistics into place for everyone else to play. Someone who takes on a certain responsibility and goes above and beyond what was asked such as; working with the constitution, insurance, umpiring, rating, international relations etc. We all know this is a lot of work and there is little recognition for these people who donate countless hours. Or this person might be an extraordinary coach, who shares their knowledge willingly, is encouraging and where the improvement in his or her students is highly noticeable.
Dear All,
