The Vancouver Warriors are a Canadian professional box lacrosse team based in Vancouver, British Columbia, that competes in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). The team moved from Everett, Washington, for the 2014 NLL season.
History The Warriors are based in Vancouver, British Columbia, and play at Rogers Arena, home of the Vancouver Canucks of the NHL. From the 2014 season to the 2017–18 season the Warriors (then known as the Stealth) played at the Langley Events Centre (LEC) in the Vancouver suburb of Langley, British Columbia. The team officially relocated into the city after being sold in 2018 to Canucks Sports & Entertainment, who announced that they would be rebranding the team. On September 21, 2018, the team unveiled their new logo and announced that their new name would be the Vancouver Warriors.
The franchise began as the Albany Attack which played from 2000 until 2003. The franchise adopted the Stealth nickname upon its move to San Jose in 2004. The team kept the name following their subsequent moves to Everett in 2010 and Vancouver in 2014. The Stealth won the Champion's Cup in 2010 while playing as the Washington Stealth. In 2017, the Vancouver Stealth qualified for the NLL Playoffs for the first time since 2013.
In 2025, the Vancouver qualified for the playoffs for the first time since their 2018 rebrand as the Warriors, and corresponding move to Rogers Arena.
