The Kahnawake Hunters are a Junior "B" box lacrosse team from Kahnawake, Quebec, Canada. The Hunters play in the Ontario Junior B Lacrosse League and are eligible for the Founders Cup National Championship. The Hunters are the only Quebec team in the OJBLL.
History The Hunters were proposed by Kahnawake Minor Lacrosse in 2007 as local players had nowhere to play after graduating the minor levels. In 2008, the team operated as an intermediate squad before applying as a Junior B team for the 2009 season.
The Kahnawake Hunters made their debut in 2009 in the Ontario Junior B Lacrosse League. The Hunters expansion marked the first time a Kahnawake team competed in Junior B in almost a decade. In their first season, the Hunters finished with a record of 3 wins, 15 losses, and 2 ties.
