FOUR RIGGERS NAMED TO TEAM CANADA

NLL champions and world champions.

Has a nice ring to it.

Four Roughnecks have been selected to represent Team Canada at the World Indoor Lacrosse Championship (WILC) in Langley, B.C, from September 19-28.

On Monday, the Canadian Lacrosse Association (CLA) announced the senior men’s 23-player roster, which includes Roughnecks netminder Christian Del Bianco, transition star Zach Currier, along with high-scoring veteran forwards Dane Dobbie and Curtis Dickson.

Dobbie, Currier and Del Bianco will make their first appearance at a World Indoor Lacrosse Championship, while Dickson makes his second appearance after winning gold with Team Canada in 2015.

Team Canada has won gold in every WILC tournament since the inaugural event in 2003.

Riggers’ bench boss Curt Malawsky has been named an assistant coach for the entry, working alongside Team Canada head coach Glenn Clark, and fellow assistants Pat Coyle and Mike Hasen.
