This week is OUA Anti-Racism Awareness Week. Across the OUA, we are celebrating the diverse voices, identities, cultures, and lived experiences that strengthen our conference.Throughout the campaign, student-athletes, coaches, and staff are sharing the people, experiences, and communities that have shaped their journeys.

Today we invite you to listen, learn, take part in meaningful dialogue, and reflect on how you can help others rise. Thank you for helping create a sport community where everyone feels respected, valued, and has true sense of belonging.

Returning to Wyndance Golf Club in Uxbridge, Ont., for the first time since 2023, 112 golfers took to the tees with the shared objective of providing important financial assistance to York student-athletes. Additionally, a number of Lions student-athletes actively interacted with those on the course throughout their rounds. This year’s event brought in a total $200,000, another new Lions Cup record.
