Their move to Surrey and then Maple Ridge in the 90s marked the first time since the early 1880s that a Vancouver team was not present in the top amateur league in BC, a fact that hasn't changed since. The team has had moderate success in Maple Ridge, including two Mann Cup appearances, though they lost both.
