MONTREAL — Montreal’s Northern Super League team will be known as Roses FC. And coming to that conclusion wasn’t a snap decision for team president Annie Larouche. “We started working on this back in November,” Larouche said.
And coming to that conclusion wasn’t a snap decision for team president Annie Larouche.
The team crest features a blue rose with “ROSES,” “MTL” and “FC” in gold lettering above it. The font draws inspiration from the city’s “Farine Five Roses” landmark on the edge of the Lachine Canal. Team founders Isabèle Chevalier and Jean-François Crevier said they must have gone through at least 40 names before finding one that stuck."And even then we went back, we had another iteration, we came back,” Chevalier added.
“We might do this for the first year, or even more,” said Larouche, who left the Canadian Elite Basketball League’s Montreal Alliance to take the new job. “We just want to make sure that we find the right field, the right stadium for us. You don't want a big stadium that is empty.” “We worked a lot in the Quebec province and Canada because we want to give those girls the opportunity to move up without needing to sign a contract somewhere else in Europe or the U.S.”
