2009 Spring Flag
|
The Spring flag league finished this last May with what was the second annual Provincial Championship held up in Kelowna this year. For the VMFL it was a year of expansion as the league went from two associations with a combined eight teams to several associations putting forth a record 24 teams.
All total there were 50 teams competing in three levels at the BC Provincials. North Surrey Minor entered four teams this year in with two in the U13 and two in the U15. The U13 Packers went largely undefeated during the season faired well in Kelowna losing only one game all weekend and that lone loss to the hands of the Provincial Champion Kelowna team.
Next year looks to be even bigger as all the players that participated this year had fun.
