Whitehorse Yukoners

Whitehorse, the territorial capital of Yukon, boasts a metropolitan population of 23,000 and an international airport with regular service to Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Fairbanks, and, in summer, Frankfurt, Germany. It also the site of the newest Alaskan League franchise and the first outside the state of Alaska: the Whitehorse Yukoners.

The new ownership of the Yukoners brought in a local man to run the team as GM: Johnny Gibbon. Gibbon then hired away a coach from the Lower 48's Appalachian League, Alberto Rivera, to serve as manager.
