Niagara River Lions begin Mesh Refresh Tour

The Niagara River Lions are hitting local courts with the 2026 Mesh Refresh Tour, bringing basketball directly to communities across the Niagara Region this April. 

Expanding on a program first launched in Thorold and St. Catharines, the initiative will visit Niagara Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Fort Erie, Thorold, and St. Catharines, upgrading outdoor courts with new Spalding meshes. 

Fans of all ages can join Head Coach Kimbal Mackenzie for shooting, skill demos, and a chance to see the River Lions’ championship trophy up close.
