The 91原创 Thunder are in the market for a new head coach.

Rod Jensen, who served as head coach of the senior A Western Lacrosse Association squad for the past five seasons, stepped down on Thursday.

Jensen and his family are taking part in a job exchange in Australia next year.

The team made the playoffs in 2015 but was swept in the league semifinals.

Under Jensen, the Thunder went 47-30-4 and won a pair of WLA titles in 2011 and 2012.

He has also coached in the National Lacrosse League and in the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League.

鈥淚 think sometimes a change can be good and a fresh voice can be beneficial for the Thunder,鈥� Jensen said.

鈥淟ooking back at my time, I have so many great memories, like winning a couple of championships and playing in two Mann Cups, which was great for 91原创.鈥�

He also thanked the Buchan family for the opportunity with the Thunder.

鈥淥n behalf of the Thunder franchise, we would like to thank Rod for his contributions over the past five seasons,鈥� said Thunder general manager and vice-president Rob Buchan.

The Thunder have begun their search for a new head coach. Interested applicants can email robbuchan@shaw.ca.
