For the fourth consecutive season, the West Kelowna Warriors are changing their name to the Peachland Warriors for a night to celebrate their neighbours down the highway.
As they welcome the Salmon Arm Silverbacks (19-10-6-0) to Royal LePage Place on Friday, Jan. 24, the team will be wearing specialty Peachland Warriors jerseys. And for the first time since the tradition began, the team has changed up the jerseys.
Instead of the familiar peach-coloured jerseys with black trim, the team revealed new white jerseys with the peach colour as the trim.
