In 2006, the Aces changed their location to "Wellington" to represent their municipality of Centre Wellington, Ontario as whole. During that season, the Aces would win the OSBLL championship and later the Presidents Cup as national champions. Wellington would finish the OSBLL regular season one point out of first place. In the playoffs, Wellington would beat the Owen Sound Woodsmen 3-games-to-2. In the final, the Aces would beat the Ajax-Pickering Rock 3-games-to-1 to take the provincial title.[1] The Aces would pack their bags and travel west to Ladner, British Columbia to compete for the national championship with the best of Senior B lacrosse nationwide.
