The Redbirds Jr B are a Junior "B" box lacrosse team based in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. The Redbirds play in the OLA Junior B Lacrosse League. Founded in 1979, the Saints lacrosse club has built a rich history over the last four decades. Initially based out of Scarborough, the team raised its first Founder's Cup in 1985. Seven years later the Saints tasted glory again, winning the 1992 Jr B Championship.
After 23 years, the Saints moved from Scarborough to their current home in Newmarket in 2008.
Hundreds of players have worn the red, white and blue team colors, a number of whom went on to play professionally.
2018 marks the 40th season for the Saints lacrosse club.
In 2025 the team changed it name from Saints to Redbirds
