The Rochester Knighthawks are excited to announce their Anti-Bullying Program for the 2013 NLL Season. Last season, the Knighthawks signed an anti-bullying pledge to kick off their 2012 season. The “We Got Your Back” program, which was founded by Hurricanes Lacrosse, was supported by the players and the entire staff.

This season, the World Champions are taking the next step by bringing the anti-bullying message to local school children. Players will come to your school and share their personal stories with the students. The presentation includes the signs of bullying, how to handle bullying situations, and where to go for help. It is estimated that about 30 percent of students in sixth through 10th grade in the United States are involved in bullying on a regular basis.

All requests for player(s), dance team or staff appearances must be submitted in writing at least two weeks in advance of your event. Approved appearances will receive a confirmation telephone call from a representative from the Knighthawks prior to the event.
