Ron Pinder grew up in Richmond, B.C.

His first national championship came in the form of a Minto Cup ring playing for the legendary Richmond Roadrunners team in 1971.

He would go on to win two Mann Cups for the Vancouver Burrards in 1975 and 1977. He finished his career with close to a 3 points per game scoring average.

Pinder really made his mark in the Mann Cup. His dad, Roy Pinder, had won the Mann Cupp in 1949. Ron would “see him and raise him one” starting in 1975 when he was awarded the Mike Kelly award that year as the MVP of the Series.

1975 was a great year for Ron Pinder. Jim Bishop called on him in the NLL playoffs to join the professional Montreal Quebecois .

Montreal was down 3 games to 1 in the semi-finals against the Boston Bolts and came back to take them 4-3. They would go 6 games against the Quebec Caribous who would go on to win the Championship in the final year of the pro league.
