The New Westminster Junior A Salmonbellies are getting ready to open their season this weekend when they head over to the Island to take on the Victoria Shamrocks in Colwood.
Recently, the Jr. A ’Bellies hosted the Jr. Burnaby Lakers in an exhibition game at Queen’s Park Arena.
On May 3, the ’Bellies return to New Westminster for the team’s home opener game against the Nanaimo Timbermen.
Last season, these two teams met several times, with the ’Bellies coming out on top in each game, including the final matchup on June 22, 2014, when the Jr. A Salmonbellies decimated the Timbermen 18-6.
The game starts at 5 p.m. Tickets are $10 for adults at the door, $5 for seniors and students and free for kids 12 and under or minor lacrosse players wearing their ’Bellies jersey.

The Senior Salmonbellies start their season on May 27 when they travel to Langley to take on the Thunder.
The following night the ’Bellies are back at home to take on the Coquitlam Adanacs at Queen’s Park Arena. Both games start at 7:45 p.m.
