The Rosemont National was a team of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League that existed from 1969 to 1971. The team moved several times since and now exists as the Acadie-Bathurst Titan.
The Rosemont National was one of the founding clubs of the QMJHL, along with the Drummondville Rangers, Quebec Remparts, Shawinigan Bruins, Sherbrooke Castors, Sorel Éperviers, Trois-Rivières Ducs, Cornwall Royals, Laval Saints, Saint-Jérôme Alouettes and Verdun Maple Leafs.
