VI Raiders set to begin 2016 season against Kamloops
The VI Raiders are set to open the season at home Saturday against the Kamloops Broncos.
Coach Jerome Erdman says it’s critical for the Raiders to hit the ground running in a short 10 game season.
“Especially at home for so many reasons we want to get off to a fast start against Kamloops, who are very well coached. They’re going to be a very good football team. So we’re going to be battling for a playoff spot with them obviously,” said Erdman.
Last year the Raiders finished 7-3, and lost in the Cullen Cup game to the Okanagan Sun.
