TORONTO, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LUG Sports Group Inc. (“LUG”), one of North America’s largest recreational sports leagues, announced today that it has ranked No. 146 out of 375 companies on the 2026 Report on Business magazine’s list of Canada’s Top Growing Companies. This marks LUG’s second straight year on the list. LUG also was ranked No. 5 on the Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation list.

Canada’s Top Growing Companies ranks Canadian businesses on three-year revenue growth. LUG earned its spot with a 174% growth rate over the past three years and a 239% growth rate over five years.

LUG reimagines recreational sports for college students and young adults, running leagues in hockey, women’s hockey, flag football, softball, soccer, lacrosse and pickleball. Every league is built around pro-level energy, standout content, and a community that extends well beyond game day. With more than 150,000 players all time across 85+ cities, LUG is North America’s go-to destination for adult and college social sports leagues.

“Making this list once was a milestone. Making it two years in a row is validation in the consistency of what we are trying to create,” said Ethan Wright and Ray Abramson, Presidents and Co-Founders of LUG Sports. “For more than a decade, we’ve grown LUG across college campuses and cities with one goal: give every player a premium, social sports experience that makes the average joe feel like a pro. This recognition belongs to our players, our community, and our HQ team that keeps raising the bar.”

With an expanded head office team and scalable infrastructure in place, LUG is well positioned to continue driving their brand in the fragmented adult sports market. As AI becomes increasingly embedded in everyday life, the value of real-world experiences, genuine connection, and community will only grow. LUG creates that “third space” for Millennials and Gen Z today, with Gen Alpha not far behind, positioning the brand to lead the next generation of social sports.
