Belleville Cancelled
Touch Football Ontario is monitoring the impact of the pandemic COVID-19 situation throughout Ontario. We are committed to having the Trillium Tour in 2020 once conditions are deemed safe.
With the Provincial government’s direction to limit the size of gatherings, it is obvious that this crisis will directly affect our tour and be a longer fight than we had hoped. We encourage everyone to practice social distancing and follow the government’s recommendations and directives to keep us all safe.
We want to make decisions that keep our players and their families safe. The Belleville Tournament is scheduled for May 2/3, 2020 which is only 5 weeks away. Given the current pandemic situation, the Belleville tournament is canceled. We will refocus to potentially start our tournament season with Brampton on May 23/24, 2020.
We will open the entry portal for Brampton on Mytournament.ca shortly. Once open we will continue to comply with the government and public health’s directions. Our decision making for Brampton will be more clear in early May as we look at the government’s directives and the number of participants who are entered in the tournament.
Brampton will be a two-part process required for a positive decision;
(one) being that the government and health officials consider it safe to gather
(two) that we have enough teams who based on their own assessments are comfortable and willing to participate.
Please keep yourselves and loved ones safe and we will get together eventually. We are committed to having a Trillium Tour this year regardless of the number of tournaments we will make it work

THE MEMORY OF ED LAVERTY
Ed was the driving force behind the Ottawa Nepean Touch Football League. Under his guidance and leadership the ONTFL reached it's 50th year; where he excelled as an athlete, administrator, leader, builder, role model and noted ambassador. He also presided over Touch Football Ontario for nearly a decade and helped launch Touch Football Canada.
Ed was instrumental in enabling 40 years of Provincial and National Touch Championships across the country to take place. He introduced thousands to the sport of touch football; with second and third generations now playing.
His selfless efforts were acknowledged in 2013 when he was awarded the Mayor’s Cup Award for his Outstanding Contribution to Sport in Ottawa and in 2014 when he was inducted in the prestigious Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame where he was recognized for his 50 years of contribution and dedication as a community builder.
He was a special man, who would give you the shirt off his back. He was always quick to lend a helping hand and extend an open door to whoever needed it. He was a jokester, famous for his one liners and a loyal friend.
He’s an irreplaceable “One of a Kind” humble man who is missed beyond measure but who's legacy is carried on through his family, colleagues and the many lives he touched in world of sport and community.
