Introduction

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this Statement) relates to the beneficial ownership of the Common Shares, no par value per share (the Shares) of Performance Sports Group, Ltd., a Canadiancorporation (the Issuer).  This Statement is being filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons and amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons dated February 1, 2016.  Unless otherwise defined, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the initial Schedule 13D.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby supplemented with the addition of the following:

The aggregate purchase price for the additional Shares reported herein as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is $2,580,405.54, with purchases in Canadian dollars being converted to U.S. dollars.  All of such additional Shares were acquired with Sagards working capital in open market purchases, unless and except as otherwise noted, as set forth in Item 5(c), which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a)-5(c) are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

(a)

The Shares reported herein are held directly by Sagard.  As of the filing of this amendment on March 15, 2016, each Reporting Person beneficially owned 6,862,688 Shares, which represented 15.1% of the outstanding Shares, based upon 45,566,680 Common Shares issued and outstanding as of January 12, 2016, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended November 30, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 14, 2016.

In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998) (the Release) this filing reflects the securities beneficially owned by PCC and certain of its subsidiaries, including Sagard.  The filing does not reflect securities beneficially owned, if any, by any subsidiaries of PCC whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of PCC in accordance with the Release.

The beneficial ownership reflected in the remainder of this Item 5, and in the cover pages, reflect beneficial ownership as of March 15, 2016, the date of filing of this amendment.
