The Warriors are well into their summer ball seasons, and there was a lot to celebrate in the community in June with standout performances in the WLA and PLL as well as many meaningful community appearances.
The Warriors connected with fans at local events and racked up stars in the box, showing up and showing out all month long.
The Warriors were busy throughout the Lower Mainland in June, celebrating the start of summer.

The Warriors attended various local lacrosse tournaments and events like Italian Day on the Drive to help spread the game and engage with fans.
June marked National Indigenous History Month, and the Warriors honoured the Indigenous roots of lacrosse by attending several cultural celebrations, including National Indigenous People’s Day at Tsawwassen First Nation Youth Centre.
They also celebrated the grand opening of the new outdoor lacrosse box on the North Shore with Squamish Nation and took part in the Métis Nation Golf Tournament.
It was an honour to be apart of the Squamish Nation Box Opening Ceremony this past weekend. 🥍
