CW vs Burnaby Lake - Game Report
An absolutely beautiful day with warm sunshine, blue sky and a clear view of the snow capped Northshore mountains. Warm? For the big men who toiled hard for 80 minutes, it was a blast of heat that felt like mid summer – 22 degrees with a cross field wind that made it very difficult for...

Not Necessarily A Very Good Day!
Saturday last saw The Tricolors visit the Shark Tank. Bayside, a club battling relegation and their plight looking even more dismal following the Ravens win over hosts, JBA, provided more than sufficient creditable opposition for the visitors. The Ones needed a win and a win of some measure...
CW Bolsters The Ranks
Coach, Hyde-Lay has announced a strong XV for Saturday's Bayside encounter. Mike Scholtz has finally completed a long injury recouperation period and will join Mike Fuailefau in the centers. Although Fuli was called up for VII's duty, he saw little playing time, so this pair should be itching...
CW Visits The Sharktank
It has been two seasons since the Sharks and The Tricolors have squared off. Bayside looked much different those days, with the likes of Haley, Pajic, VanStavern, Conkin, Roberts, Blaak, Thiel, Riordan, Henderson, La Carte, all since gone! Bayside have battled the relegation/promotion demons...
