Bourne Canalmen

The Bourne Canalmen are the athletic teams of Bourne High School in Bourne, Massachusetts. The Canalmen compete in the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) Division II South Section.

The Bourne Canalmen are named after the Cape Cod Canal, which runs through the town of Bourne. The canal is a man-made waterway that connects Cape Cod Bay to Buzzards Bay. It was built in the early 1900s to shorten the shipping route between Boston and New York.
