In last weekend’s match against the Powell River Otagos, the younger members of the AFC Comox Valley Kickers shone in a win that put the club back on track after two recent losses. The club had traveled to Victoria the past two weekends losing 32-28 to the Castaway-Wanderers and 35-7 to the Velox-Valhallians, but the win over Powell River leaves the Kickers in second place in the standings with two weeks to prepare for the playoffs. They will face Cowichan at Cumberland’s Village park on April 8th @ 1p.m. This spring season has seen an influx of eager young players to the club, some of them like eighteen year-old Vince Bennett, still a student at Mark Isfeld school, electrified the crowd with a hat-trick of tries against the Powell River visitors on Sunday. Bennett who stands 6’ 2” and weights 215 pounds, plays #8 for his school team and lock for the Kickers, and when he gets the ball in hand and works up a head of steam he is difficult man to stop.

Nineteen year-old Curtis Parker graduated from Isfeld last year and can play anywhere in the backs. Though he has only been playing the game for a couple of years, he enjoys the contact and running with the ball in hand. He has notched a couple of tries this Spring season and is looking more...

Last weekend the CV Kickers received trys from the Hextall brothers (4), Troy Mader(2), Eli Cummins(1), Vince Bennett(2), & Brandon Huddleston(1) coupled with 6 converts supplied by Konrad Nikkel on their way to a 63 point victory over Saanich Peninsula RFC. Mader looked as though he hadn’t missed a beat after being away for most of the the Spring season. It appears that Brandon Robertson has found his niche at the prop position. However Isfield high school student, Vince Bennett stole the show from the number eight position as he ran in 2 trys and almost snagged a third. No doubt he will be a force whenever his school plays throughout the...
