- From Peace Arch Crossing proceed North on Hwy 99 and turn right onto 8th Ave to get back over to 15/Pacific Hwy and head North (left at light)
- From Truck Crossing proceed north after crossing

- Continue north on Hwy 15/Pacific Hwy/176 St for 13 miles until you hit Hwy 1

- Burnaby Lake Sports Complex is on your right off Sprott Street (it's also on the left too but the footy field is on the right)

To make the 1:45pm game, we recommend leaving at 9:30 to make sure you get there in time with a 1 hour border crossing. Later on Saturday morning's the border is usually busier.

Seattle Over Portland in Klahanie Park Scorcher

Game 3 of the 2008 Seattle V Portland series was played in scorching heat out on Klahanie Park on Saturday - and spectators were well entertained with 4 quarters of very fierce football.

Seattle produced arguably their strongest squad in the series so far, but unfortunately, Portland travelled with several key outs. Despite their missing players, the hot conditions, and a sizable scoreboard deficit, Portland showed plenty of heart and competed well for the full 80 minutes of football.


Seattle gelled extremely well in all areas of the field. Linked handballs and precise kicking moved the ball well through the corridors and made for some great passages of play. Butler was unstoppable up forward, Richo and Morts attacked well out of the back line, and Justin Peel made the midfield his own in his farewell game for 2008.

Given the quality of football produced by the Seattle squad, signs are certainly looking very good for the up coming BC Footy Cup!

Seattle: 22.20-152
Portland: 8.4-52

Goals:
Eric Butler 5, Josh Anfinson 3, Matt Muller 2, Adam Cannane 2, Chris Richmond 2, Ed Fayette 2, Justin Peel 2, Ross Tucker 2, Tom Keane 1, Jeff Purcell 1, Tim Hollingsworth 1 (played for Portland)
