Shamrocks prepare for key weekend games with off-floor issues in the forefront

Victoria hosts Maple Ridge on Friday, visit Nanaimo on Saturday

An off-floor whirlwind, ­including a game ­relocation from Port Alberni and a ­coaching change in Nanaimo, has swept through the Western Lacrosse ­Association.

“While we know this is a huge disappointment for lacrosse fans in Port Alberni, as well as our players and coaches, our primary responsibility is the health and safety of the firefighters and road crews, and we are committed to returning to Port Alberni in 2024,” WLA commissioner Paul Dal Monte said in a statement.

Victoria head coach Mike Simpson echoed those sentiments: “We feel we owe Maple Ridge one. And the games against our Island rival Nanaimo always have that extra something to them and the Timebermen have a lot of talent.”
