“I love getting the chance to play a few games here,” Rock owner, president and general manager Jamie Dawick told the team’s website about the facility which serves as a hub for indoor lacrosse in Ontario. “We have our dressing room here and we practice here every week, so I really enjoy seeing us play at the TRAC.”

“We’ll get after it against an Alberta rival and in a town that’s been really supportive of us,” Roughnecks transition star Geoff Snider told CalgaryRoughnecks.com. “So we’re excited to do it and it’s going to be really cool to get out there and play an exhibition game here at home.”
