HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL November 13, 2007 – The
assistant captain of the 2007 Chicago Shamrox,
Carter Livingstone, signed a new contract with the
Shamrox that will keep him in Chicago until the end
of the 2009 season. Livingstone played in 15 games
during the Inaugural Season of the Shamrox and
scooped up 55 looseballs and 5 assists.
“I am really excited about resigning with the
Shamrox,” said defenseman Carter Livingstone. “The
team is run like a first class organization and I am
proud to be a part of it. I look forward to
competing for the Champion’s Cup and bringing a
championship home to the Windy City.”
Livingstone is no stranger to bringing championships
home. During the 2002 and 2003 seasons, Livingstone
played for the Toronto Rock and helped the Rock
secure back-to-back championships.
Selected 17th overall in the 2006 NLL Expansion
Draft by the Shamrox, Livingstone was monumental in
helping the Shamrox be extremely competitive in
their first year in the National Lacrosse League
(NLL). Not only did Livingstone perform on the
field, but he was a valuable asset off the field
serving as the assistant captain of the Shamrox.
With a large amount of the Shamrox roster containing
either rookies or younger players, Livingstone
served as a role model to the guys.
Livingstone is a full-time teacher for a high school
in Canada, where he also serves as a coach for their
lacrosse team.
The Chicago Shamrox are currently selling season,
group and individual tickets. Individual tickets can

www.searscentre.com. Season and group tickets

The Shamrox take the field for their second season
in Chicago on January 5 when they play the Toronto
Rock at 7:00pm at the Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman
Estates. The 2008 season features 8 Home Games that
are played on weekend dates. In their Inaugural
Season, the Shamrox drew an average attendance of
6,025 and record of 6-10, missing the playoffs by a
tie breaker. # # # Joe Stefani
