Buck Pierce poised for first training camp as B.C. Lions head coach

  • Buck Pierce is set to begin his inaugural year leading the B.C. Lions as head coach, starting with the team's training camp in Kamloops, B.C., on May 7, 2025.
  • Pierce was appointed in early December 2024 to succeed Rick Campbell, who was relieved of his duties as both head coach and co-general manager after the Lions concluded their season with a 9-9 record and a loss in the West Division semifinal.
  • Pierce, a former offensive coordinator for Winnipeg with decades in the CFL, will lead rookies and quarterbacks reporting Wednesday, with the rest joining Sunday as several roster spots remain open.
  • Key players like quarterback Nathan Rourke, 26, who missed last season while pursuing an NFL opportunity, emphasize the team’s hunger to improve, while receiver Justin McInnis praises Pierce’s coaching knowledge and faith in the offense.
  • Pierce said the next four weeks will focus on building team identity and standards for the season, suggesting this phase marks a strategic shift under his leadership.
