The Calgary Roughnecks have released their 2024-25 schedule, highlighted by a home-opener party on Dec. 28.
That’s when the National Lacrosse League club will host the rival Vancouver Warriors on WestJet Field.
The Roughnecks are set to open the campaign with two road games, starting Dec. 7 against the Halifax Thunderbirds.
The 18-game schedule sees the Riggers take on familiar opponents as well as new faces. Calgary will play each of the other 13 NLL teams at least once, and will face off twice against the Warriors, Las Vegas Desert Dogs, Colorado Mammoth, Buffalo Bandits and Saskatchewan Rush.
