They're professional athletes on the field on the weekends, and heroes in the community during the weekdays.
The lacrosse team are true warriors all days of the week. In fact, the Warriors are proud to have several frontline workers on their team.
Four members of the Warriors serve as firefighters within Metro Vancouver, including Head Coach Chris Gill as part of 麻豆传媒映画Fire & Rescue Services, and Tyler Codron, Brett Mydske, and Jordan McBride with the Burnaby Fire Department.
"As firefighters, we are well aware of how the pandemic has affected all citizens during these times," says Gill. "We do our best to provide all types of assistance to citizens and make the communities we work in as safe as possible."
Current and former team members serve in other Metro 麻豆传媒映画fire departments, in the 麻豆传媒映画Police Department, and in the Burnaby School District.
During the past holiday season, a number of Warriors players and management volunteered their time at local shelters, serving hot meals to homeless and displaced individuals in the community. Prior to COVID-19, the team also facilitated a community school program in which the players visited elementary schools to demonstrate the sport of Lacrosse.
