What a great coaching staff!

The Parkland Posse are thrilled to confirm the four members of the 2025 Coaching Staff for the Junior B team.

Mike Sim is returning as the Head Coach and recently told the Posse that he looks forward to the challenge of building upon the momentum from last season, despite having nine players age out of the division.  Mike has been a long serving member of the Posse Executive and is committed to growing the sport by creating an unmatched player experience.

Erik Turner, who is also currently the Posse Technical Director is returning as the lead skills coach for the team.  Many people in the Edmonton area are very familiar with Erik as he is regularly involved in coaching with both APEX and PACBOX programs as well as his involvement with all teams in the Posse.  Erik is still an active player in the WLA with the Coquitlam Adanacs and brings a wealth of experience to our players.  He is an outstanding coach that shares Coach Mike's passion for creating a positive playing experience while building the confidence of the players and improving the skill level of lacrosse in the province.

Tyrone Willushaw has been a member of the Junior team coaching staff for several years specializing in Goaltender instruction and transition.  When his playing days concluded he had played in three Canadian Box Lacrosse Championships (Jr. B - Founders Cup, Jr. A - Minto Cup, and Sr. B -Presidents Cup) as well as playing for the New Westminster Salmonbellies of the WLA and Simon Fraser University where the team made four straight MCLA US National Field Lacrosse Championships.

New to the staff this year is Posse alum Eric George.  Eric enjoyed 4 years of NCAA Division II Field lacrosse at Chowan University where he achieved 275 career points becoming the all-time points leader in Chowan’s history.  He competed for the Minto Cup (National Junior A Championship) with the Edmonton Miners and currently plays Senior B with the Fort Saskatchewan Rebels.  Eric is part of Posse history having played on four consecutive Provincial Champion West Zone A teams from U15 through U17.  We are thrilled to have Eric on the bench to mentor our next generation of players.

With leadership like this... the sky is the limit!  Let's go Posse!
