Playoffs to be Determined this Weekend
July 2, 2009
The Timbermen will face the New Westminster Salmonbellies in the first round if one of two things occur this weekend. If Delta defeats PoCo on Friday night, the Timbermen are in. If PoCo wins, then the Timbermen will have to defeat the PoCo Saints on Saturday in PoCo to get the final playoff spot. If not, the Timbermen will have to win against the Burnaby Lakers on Sunday to secure their spot in the post season dance.
An outside chance at 5th place can be had if the Delta Islanders lose both of their games this weekend and the Timbermen win both of theirs.
Lacrosse Loses Another Builder
June 20, 2009
Many of the Nanaimo Jr. A Timbermen have known Brian Mayzes over a number of years. He has been with the Jr. Shamrocks for the past 3 seasons as the Head Scout; as well as a builder within the Saanich Minor Lacrosse Association for a great many years.
Brian leaves behind his wife Dianne and sons Scott and Cory. You will be missed Brian.
BCJLL Player of the Week
June 8, 2009
 The BCJLL have announced that Nanaimo's Colton Clark is Player of the Week for week #6.
Colton had 3 goals, 6 assists for 9 points in 2 games played, with 0 penalty minutes.
Clark is enjoying the move to transitional play and is getting a few more opportunities to use his size and speed over the full floor and is producing quite nicely for the Timbermen. Colton currently sits in 7th place in BCJLL scoring. Congratulations Colton!
In addition, Scott Bannister has a 9.21 GAA and a 81.21 save percentage; moving him up the goaltending ranks; and now sits 4th amoungst active goaltenders.
Looking to the Skies
June 5, 2009
The Jr. A Timbermen host the Langley Thunder tonight at the NIC; game time is 8:00pm.
Nanaimo has faced a few hardships over the past 2 weeks and are looking to rebound with shortened roster. Injuries and player commitments have put the Jr. Timbermen behind the 8 ball but a win tonight over the Thunder will catapult the axe swingers into a tie for 4th spot.
The Jr. Timbermen will then travel to Port Coquitlam on Sunday to face the Saints, a game that could give them sole possession of 4th place and would show a tremendous turnaround to the season.
The summer weather has come and not many wish to be indoors with this weather but an 8:00pm game time tonight should give everyone an opportunity to enjoy the sun, have dinner and catch the Jr. Timbermen at the NIC.
Frank Crane Arena Hosts Jr. Timbermen
May 28, 2009
The Jr. Timbermen will play tomorrow night and Sunday June 1st at the Frank Crane Arena due to a convention scheduled at the Nanaimo Ice Centre.
After a heartbreaking loss to the Delta Islanders last Sunday, the Timbermen look to get back on track when the Burnaby Lakers come to town tomorrow night. Game time is at 7:00pm.
Sunday, the undefeated Coquitlam Adanacs come to Beban Park to face the Timbermen.
