The High River Heat kick off the Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League season Sunday, April 15 in Sylvan Lake against the Yetti.

Coach Larry Makortoff says they've got some new players this year after saying so long to some at the end of last season.

"Right now we're probably 50-60 per cent of our old team back. Of course we aged some guys out. But we have midgets coming up from High River coming up, and hopefully we can steal a couple of the Tier one's from Okotoks. So, we'll see how that goes."

The Heat play their home opener next Saturday, April 21, when the Rockyview Rage come to town.
