FLEMING TO HOST THREE PROVINCIAL CHAMPIONSHIPS IN THE UPCOMING SEASON

PETERBOROUGH, Ont. - The Fleming Knights and Fleming College's Athletics and Recreation Department are excited to host three Ontario Colleges Athletic Association (OCAA) provincial championships this upcoming season. The Knights will host the 2019 men's soccer provincials, 2020 curling provincials and the 2020 men's volleyball provincials.

The 2019 men's soccer provincials will take place Oct. 23 to 26 at the Fleming Sports Complex which Athletic Coordinator Fred Batley states is one of the best. "Fleming has one of the best soccer complex in Canada where we have hosted national and provincial soccer and rugby. Fleming has previously hosted both women's soccer national and provincial tournaments in 2015, and women's rugby sevens and men's provincial soccer in 2018."

"Fleming has a rich history of hosting curling provincials and nationals at the collegiate level. Peterborough is a strong curling town and the Peterborough Curling Club is an excellent partner. We look forward to hosting the first-ever mixed doubles competition for the OCAA," added Batley. The 2020 curling provincials will take place February 13 to 15 at the Peterborough Curling Club.

Fleming looks forward to finish off the schedule by hosting the OCAA Men's Volleyball Championship for the first time in Fleming's history. After a recent stretch of playing in the championship tournament, the Knights will now get a chance to play the best teams in the province in front of their home crowd all while hosting the provincial championship from February 27 to 29 at the Peterborough Sport & Wellness Centre.
