Our Partners
We are thrilled to announce that AXIA Time has signed on as the Official Timepiece of the NILCA. We thought you might like to know about AXIA Time as you pursue your quest for a championship this season.
AXIA TIME makes ultra-custom, heirloom-quality timepieces that celebrate life’s greatest achievements. They’ve made commemorative timepieces for the Tewaaraton honorees and last four Division 1 National Champions (UVA, Maryland, and Notre Dame), AXIA TIME has made Championship timepieces for Deerfield, Jesuit Dallas, Radnor, McCallie and Highland Park, just to name a few. AXIA Time will also create a timepiece for our Hall of Fame inductees this fall. Stay tuned for that design to be revealed in the coming months.
John Kanaras, a lifelong lacrosse guy, founded AXIA Time. He played for Howie Ratner at Baldwin High School and for Tony Seaman at the University of Pennsylvania. In fact, you probably already know him, you just don’t know it, yet. John was the goalie in the infamous “Air Gait” goal from the 1988 Final Four game between Syracuse and Penn. John claims those scars have (mostly) healed, but we’re not so sure… ☺
AXIA TIME has also partnered with Kyle Harrison to help build awareness about what they do, why they do it and what it represents. You can hear Kyle talk about AXIA Time here.
As you pursue your quest for a championship this season, we encourage you to consider connecting your team parents with John to explore creating an ultra-custom timepiece to commemorate your incredible season—his process is simple and risk-free. AND as added incentive to you all, he has also agreed to donate one additional Hall of Fame timepiece for a past inductee for each team that creates a custom timepiece this season. This will help up “catch up” all prior Hall of Fame inductees and ensure they all have heirloom-quality timepiece to commemorate their inductions to the NILCA Hall of Fame.
