The Maritime University Field Lacrosse League (MUFLL) is an association of men's field lacrosse teams connected with universities in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Teams compete in the fall with league playoffs typically in early November. Established in 2005, the MUFLL currently has six member schools competing.
The Telus Cup is a Canadian university field lacrosse championship, awarded annually to the winner of the post-season tournament by the Maritime University Field Lacrosse League. The Telus Cup tournament is typically held the first weekend in November, and is hosted by one of the member schools.
As of 2024, 19 MUFLL tournaments have been held (not held in 2020). In that span three teams - Dalhousie, St. Francis Xavier, and Saint Mary's - have won the title, Dalhousie leading with sixteen titles.
