Fraser Valley Triumphs Over Canada in U17 Action
from Adam Roberts
posted Feb 1 2010
Another wicked rugby day at South Surrey Athletic Park! Sunday afternoon saw the Fraser Valley U17’s host the Canadian Development U17 team. The Valley had a strong contingent of Canada U17 players that were on the recent tour to Santa Barbara. The game was played in great spirits with players on both sides vying for spots on the tour to the Wellington Festival (formerly Millfield) in April.
The Canadian Squad opened the scoring with a well earned try in the corner. The Valley came right back with a converted try of their own for the lead. The game was filled with momentum shifts as both teams were working through kinks.
With the Valley down 13-12 with about 12 minutes to go an outstanding individual effort by Justin Douglas put the Valley up 19-13. Not to be discouraged the Canadian side stormed to score a late try but were unable to convert.

Trip to U20 Men’s National Final On The Line For Fraser Valley
Burnaby, BC – After going undefeated in the 2007 Dunbar Cup sub union competition, the Under 20 Men of the Fraser Valley Rugby Union are set to take on the Calgary Jr. Mavericks this Saturday, July 28th at Burnaby Lake RFC. Kick-off is set for 1:00 PM.
Although the Dunbar Cup is an annual competition between the three major sub unions (Fraser Valley, Vancouver and Vancouver Island), the pathway to becoming the Under 20 Men’s National Champions is new. For the first time, the winner of the Dunbar Cup competes for the Western Canadian Championship title (Fraser Valley vs. Calgary Jr. Mavericks). The winner of this fixture then travels to the location of the Rugby Canada Super League (RCSL) Final to take on the Eastern Canadian Champion.
Fans are encouraged to come out and support our squad from the Fraser Valley in their bid to become 2007 Under 20 Men’s National champions!
