2024 Toronto Rock season

The Toronto Rock are a lacrosse team based in Hamilton, Ontario playing in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). The 2024 season is the 26th in franchise history, and 25th as the Rock.

Regular season
It was originally announced that beginning in January 2024, the Rock would need to temporarily relocate their home games to the Paramount Fine Foods Centre in Mississauga, Ontario, as following their home games in December 2023 Hamilton's FirstOntario Centre would close for renovations for approximately two years. This also forced the Bulldogs and Honey Badgers to temporarily and permanently relocate to Brantford and Brampton, respectively. However, in September 2023 it was announced that the renovations would be delayed and that the Toronto Rock would play the entirety of the 2023/24 season in Hamilton before temporarily relocating to Mississauga for the following season until the renovations are completed.

Prior to the season the league announced a new alignment of teams, with the Eastern and Western conferences being eliminated in favour of a single unified standings for ranking the teams.

The Rock made a number of notable acquisitions in the offseason via trades and free agency, including Mark Matthews, Chris Boushy, Dan Lintner, and Justin Martin. Meanwhile, the team lost Jamison Dilks, Zach Manns and Adam Jay. Additionally, Dan Dawson retired.

Latrell Harris, the defending National Lacrosse League Defensive Player of the Year Award, injured his ACL in the offseason and will be out for the full season.

The team had a strong start to the regular season, winning its first 5 games. The Rock finished 15–3, and clinched first place after defeating the Rochester Knighthawks 13–6 on April 13.
