The athletic director for Riverside Secondary, Rob Colombo, will be coaching the Riverside lacrosse team. Columbo has been coaching the team for the past 6 years, and he also has experience coaching the Port Coquitlam Saints.
In an interviewed with Mr. Colombo regarding the lacrosse team, he said, “The lacrosse team will start after November 15th.”
In order to o play on the Riverside lacrosse team, you must bring your own gear.
The practices and home games will be held at Gates Park, right next to Riverside Secondary school.
The away games will be held all over the lower mainland against other schools.
To sign up for the lacrosse team go to Teams and entering the code ‘si2jmd0’ to the “add team” section.
After that, select and answer the questionnaire found on the teams page.
The questionnaire is straight forward and can be done within a few minutes; there are only a few questions on it, and they are all easy to do.
In the past few years, there has not been a lacrosse team due to Covid and other reasons such as people not signing up, but this year we can have a team, as long as enough people sign up.
Riverside is hoping to get a team going this year and are exited to get started with the new lacrosse season.
There is an inclusive atmosphere that comes with the game of lacrosse. Anyone of any age can play lacrosse and have fun doing it, all that need to be put in is effort and practice.
The game of lacrosse is a fast-paced one that takes skill to master along with time. If anyone is feeling g to the challenge of learning a new sport or wants to play more lacrosse, look no further than the Riverside Secondary school lacrosse team.
