Back in the late 70’s and 80’ s, there was a Mens Soccer Club known as the Campbell River Wave.
This team entered the Vancouver Island Soccer League as an up and coming Div. 4 team. The club was comprised of local players from Campbell River and the North Island. and they experienced immediate success, winning division championships and promoting themselves all the way up to the top division, being the 1st division.
The great play of our local team was a source of pride for our soccer community and a great way to share the soccer experience. The Campbell River Masters soccer club consists of a number of former Wave players who commonly share stories of the days gone by. The late 80’s saw the local side fade out of site with no longer any Senior Men’s soccer available for our up and coming youth of today. That is until now.
Introducing the new Cermaq City Wave Soccer team. The journey has been the same, winning league championships, culminating in their newest promotion to Div. 2. The local men hope to provide an attacking brand of soccer that is a delight to watch and make the club one that the people of Campbell River can be very proud of.
For soccer enthusiasts, the next home game takes place Saturday, Oct.26 at 2 p.m. at the Willow Point Sportsplex.
