Former VIU soccer star Blasco joins new Vancouver Island based pro soccer team
NANAIMO – The inaugural season of soccer for Pacific FC is just around the corner and the Canadian Premier League side already has deep connections to Nanaimo.
Assistant coach James Merriman played in the Harbour City in his formative years and one of the early player signings is former Vancouver Island University standout Victor Blasco.
The schedule for the CPL should drop any day now with BC’s entry in the seven team league based out of Langford on Vancouver Island.
Merriman says the squad will have a 23 man roster with up to seven of those spots for internationals.
