It was the year 2002 when the NSL News already traveled to Ottawa and reported live from the competition site. It was also the year when the Golden Knights won the 4-way competition over Airspeed Vertical and DeLand Majik.
The NSL News of the earlier years were not entered into the current database and cannot be accessed in the NSL on-line archives, which only go back to the 2003 season.

Did you know that a very exciting meet weekend is coming up? posted: Sep 4th, 2007 The June 2 meet weekend was the busiest one this year so far.

The scores will not be listed on the same leaderboard since both major events will apply separate competition draws.... (more)
