ISLANDERS PROMOTE FROM WITHIN
The Delta Islanders Lacrosse Club is proud to announce that Kyle Goundrey will be taking over the Head Coaching position of the Junior A Lacrosse Team. Kyle has spent the past three years as Co-Head Coach with the Delta Islanders Intermediate A Team. Kyle has previous coaching experience with the Coquitlam Adanacs and the Maple Ridge Burrards of the WLA. He was also chosen to coach the 2016 Canada West World Junior Team.
Kyle is no stranger to the BC Junior A League where he amassed 260 goals and 330 assists for 590 points playing for the Richmond Outlaws and the Surrey Stickmen. He also played for the Peterborough Lakers of the Ontario Lacrosse Association. Kyle went on to have an outstanding senior career playing for the Maple Ridge Burrards of the WLA and the Calgary Roughnecks, Edmonton Rush, Vancouver Ravens and the Baltimore Thunder of the NLL.
Kyle has brought on board Peter McFetridge, Logan Schuss and Randy Daly as his assistant coaching staff. All three have NLL & WLA experience, with both Peter McFetridge and Delta’s own Logan Schuss current members of the NLL Vancouver Stealth. These four coaches will bring with them a high level of experience and knowledge that will be an asset to a young Delta Islander team moving forward.
The Delta Islanders Lacrosse Club would like to thank Greg Rennie and his coaching staff for their contributions to the franchise over the last three seasons. Under Greg, the Delta Islanders won their first Provincial Jr. A Playoff Championship and had their first Minto Cup Appearance. Greg will be staying on with the Delta Islanders as General Manager along with former Co-Head Coach of the Delta Islanders Intermediate A Team, Ross Frehlick, who has been named Assistant General Manager for the Delta Islanders Lacrosse Club.
