The Comox Valley Kickers Rugby Club proudly hosted their 2nd Annual Co-Ed Touch Rugby Tournament on Saturday, August 17 at Lewis Park, marking the perfect end to their touch rugby season. The tournament saw six teams taking to the field, including three single teams from the Comox Valley, and one from Powell River, Oyster River North, and Nanaimo. In a 6v6 format, with a minimum of one female player on the field at a time, each team was guaranteed three games, with the top four teams advancing to the semi-finals and playing for a shot at the championship. After a day full of competitive and fun-filled matches, the Nanaimo Hornets emerged victorious, claiming the coveted tournament trophy and bragging rights until next year. This event is one of the major fundraisers for the Comox Valley Kickers RFC. None of this would have been possible without the incredible efforts of our volunteers. A huge thank you to Natalie Nguyen and Jesse Ramsay for coordinating the event, Jess Nikkel for scorekeeping and game commentary, Jessica Leck for selling tickets and merchandise, Kaitlyn Hazelman for running the beer garden, and Talon Peters and Stephen Hextall for grilling on the BBQ. The games also could not have happened without our referees. A standing ovation goes to Trevor McGuire, Pete Morton, Tim Quek, Brandon Hudson, Nguyen, and Ramsay. The efforts of our volunteers ensured the event ran smoothly and was a great success. We also want to extend our gratitude to all the registrants and supporters who came out to the event. Your enthusiasm and participation made this day special and memorable for everyone...
