Victoria, BC – THE HARBOURCATS ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS!

In anticipation of upcoming playoff games next week, Victoria HarbourCats 2023 playoff tickets will go on sale TUESDAY AUGUST 1st at 10:00 AM for any possible games at Wilson’s Group Stadium at Royal Athletic Park.

Tickets will be available on-line at https://harbourcats.com/tickets, or at the office at 101-1814 Vancouver Street. You can also call 778-265-0327. Season Ticket holders and partial season ticket holders will receive free playoff tickets and these will be sent via e-mail (see note below).

Heading into Tuesday’s final SIX games, starting with the Island rivalry with Nanaimo Tuesday night, while the HarbourCats have clinched a playoff spot, the final seeding is not yet determined and there is still a chance for the ‘Cats to win the second half North Division title and clinch home field in the first round.

Whatever transpires, the first possible playoff game in VICTORIA will be EITHER Tuesday, August 8th at 6:35 PM OR Wednesday, August 9th at 6:35 pm.   If that first game is WEDNESDAY, there could be a possible second home game on THURSDAY, August 10th at 6:35 PM (this would be game three of the best of three series).

If the first home game is TUESDAY, Playoff Game 2 would then be Saturday, August 12th at 6:35 PM – the North Division Final – assuming we win the first round and retain home field advantage.   And if successful there, there is a possibility we would host the WCL Championship Game on Monday August 14th at 6:35pm.

It is tickets for those first two possible home games that are now on-sale on-line at https://harbourcats.com/tickets, or at the HarbourCats offices at 101-1814 Vancouver St.  Fans purchasing tickets for this first game (PLAYOFF GAME 1) should ensure they are available on both of these potential dates (August 8th and 9th).

Fans who are truly optimistic can also secure a 4-game playoff pack, the maximum possible playoff games the HarbourCats can play at home, assuming they move on to the semi-finals and finals.

At this point, it appears that the HarbourCats will play the Wenatchee AppleSox in the first round, but confirmation of this will be made via the team’s web page and social media channels – Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and their e-mail list and customers should ensure they are responsible for checking these sites for up to date information.

SEASON TICKET HOLDERS PLEASE NOTE! You will receive FREE playoff tickets and these will be sent to you as MOBILE tickets via e-mail. YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO ONLINE TO ORDER!  Should you not receive an e-mail with your playoff tickets, or should you prefer paper tickets, please then call the office at 778-265-0327,  or come in to confirm and receive a re-print of your seats for Tuesday or Wednesday’s game! 

Should the HarbourCats NOT make it beyond the first round of the playoffs, or to the finals, any playoff games purchased over and above those that ARE played, will be credited toward the 2024 HarbourCats season for the purchase of season tickets, 10-game flex packs or individual game tickets once our 2024 schedule is released.

If you have any questions or need clarification, please call Christian or Daniela at the office at 778-265-0327.

HarbourCats welcome dogs on Sunday, July 13 at Wilson’s Group Stadium 

For immediate release

May 1, 2025

VICTORIA — The ‘Cats are going to the dogs again this summer, thanks to Woofability.

On Sunday, July 13, the gates will open at noon for a 1pm Victoria HarbourCats game and all the pooches are welcome.

The game is presented by Woofability, a tremendous local business that specializes in service dog training, also offering enrichment, boarding and training services, and even online training for pets and their humans.

“This is exciting for us, to work with Woofability and showcase what they do,” said avid animal lover and HarbourCats Director of Online Services Chris Beveridge. “This is my favourite day of the season, getting to plan all the events with Woofability for Bark in the Park.”

Treats, water dishes, a place for dogs to run a bit — all will be provided on Woofability’s “Bark in the Park“ day.

And, Woofability Service Dog Training will put on a pre-game demonstration, on the field, for fans to see. More special surprises will be planned.

“We are very excited to partner with the HarbourCats for this unique day in the HarbourCats calendar, and to be able to tell people about Woofability, Woofability Service Dog Training and also about our society, Pawsibilities Service Dogs Society, which advocates, educates and supports members of the public who need a service dog but don’t have the resources to have one,” said CEO Tim Land, who co-owns the businesses along with his wife April Sauve, the Head Trainer, highly skilled in training service dogs, dog tricks and K9 body conditioning. “This is an ideal event for our great staff to be able to show the community how much we love what we do.”

Tickets for the game are available now through our one and only ticketing partner SHOWPASS and will be available right up to gametime on that Sunday.

For more information on Woofability, Woofability Service Dog Training and Pawsibilities Service Dog Society, follow the links Woofability, Woofability Service Dog Training and Pawsabilities Service Dog Society.

Victoria HarbourCats – HarbourCats to honour outgoing VicPD Chief Del Manak on July 30

Published

on

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

April 30, 2025

VICTORIA, B.C. — He’s been our police chief for nearly 10 years, and at the end of August he’ll ride off into well-deserved retirement.

Before that, on July 30, the Victoria HarbourCats will give people a chance to say thank you with Salute to Del Manak & VicPDNight, with the Kamloops NorthPaws in town for a game at Wilson’s Group Stadium at Royal Athletic Park.

“Chief Manak — who doesn’t simply call him Del? — has become a friend to so many through his leadership, and he deserves a rousing thank you from us all,” said Jim Swanson, Managing Partner of the HarbourCats.

“We have had a strong partnership borne of a similar view of how to build this great community and make it better. Del has done a tremendous job.”

Manak was born and raised in Victoria and is in his 35th year of policing. He trained at the FBI National Academy Program and graduated from the Dalhousie University Police Leadership Program, and has a Master of Arts from Simon Fraser University in terrorism, risk and security studies.

He’s been appointed Member of the Order of Merit of police forces and had that advanced to Officer of the Order of Merit in 2024. He has also received the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee medal, the Police Exemplary Service medal, and this year the King Charles III Coronation medal.

“About the only thing we can fault him on — the New York Islanders, really, he cheers for them?” questioned Swanson.

Chief Manak will throw out the first pitch after having an opportunity to speak to fans and thank them for the support that has been so key in his success in leading VicPD.

Members of VicPD officers and staff will be on hand to show appreciation to their retiring boss and share their expertise with the crowd, including GVERT, Integrated Canine Service (ICS) and more.

The HarbourCats open their 2025 home schedule on Friday, June 6, with the Port Angeles Lefties visiting Wilson’s Group Stadium at RAP. Season Tickets, 10 and 32-Game Flex Passes and Single Game Tickets are now on sale for all 33 home games and four “Showcase” events through the HarbourCats new and one-and-only ticketing partner SHOWPASS at harbourcats.com/tickets.

Tickets and merchandise can also be purchased in person at the HarbourCats office at 101-1814 Vancouver Street or by calling 778-265-0327.
