Surrey Stickmen Announce New General Manager

Surrey Stickmen Junior A Lacrosse Club President and Governor, Joe Willmott announced today that Paul Sparrow has been appointed Vice President and General Manager and Kelly Scott will assume the role of Director of Player Personnel.

As has been widely rumoured, Kelly Scott resigned as Head Coach due to work related traveling but will stay on as Director of Player Personnel to assist in player recruitment. President Joe Willmott said “We are very sorry that Kelly’s work will not permit him to devote the hours required to remain as head coach. We are pleased that he has decided to stay on and help our staff to prepare for the upcoming midget draft and to provide a smooth transition.”

Mr. Willmott is delighted to promote Paul Sparrow to the position of Vice President and General Manager. Paul has been involved in the development of minor football and lacrosse in Surrey for the last seven years. He currently is a marketing analyst for Intrawest which operates 11 ski resorts across North America including Whistler/Blackcomb. Paul will oversee the day-to-day operations of both the Junior A and Intermediate A Clubs including the game day presentation, minor lacrosse and sponsor relations. An Assistant General Manager will be appointed to assist Paul and to manage the Intermediate A club.

Mr. Willmott expects to announce the new Head Coach within the next 10 days.
