Honour Roll of Teams
For the second year in a row, the Holy Cross Jubilee Trophy women’s team will be recognized for its
prowess in national competition. In honour of their second Jubilee Trophy national gold medal, the
2023 Holy Cross Nutraholdings Jubilee Trophy team will be added to the NLSA Honour Roll of Teams.
They become the fifth team to receive this distinction. The Holy Cross Kirby Group 2022 Jubilee Trophy
team was similarly honoured in recognition of their first ever Jubilee Trophy national women’s gold
medal.
Honorary Life Member
In recognition of her outstanding contribution to soccer at the local, provincial and national level, the
NLSA has announced that Judi Kelloway will become an Honorary Life Member. Judi’s soccer career
began on the Burin Peninsula but her impact quickly spread to the rest of the province and across the
country as she became an integral part of various NLSA Boards and committees and Canada Soccer
committees. On the national scene, Judi has served on Canada Soccer’s Competitions Committee for 24
years and has been the Chair since 2012, a position she still holds.
The new laureates and award winners will be recognized at a formal induction ceremony in April 2024.
