As the LISA board/presidents meeting is now on Tuesday June 16, we will schedule our board meeting on June 29, not on June 15, right after the AGM.
Hopefully we will have a little more information at that time, so we can make some summer and fall plans.
See you then,
Peter
It will be run through zoom if we have to.
For those of you who don’t know him, he’s best known as that youth referee who loves to chat to players and fans.
To all the players young and old ,committee, coaches, refs, and tea ladies that I have been fortunate enough to meet whilst being some small part of the CVSA I would like to thank you and say cheerio for now.
Tracey and I are heading back to the UK to hopefully spend the last few years of my mum and dads life with them.....
Who knows one day we may return to Canada and if we do it will certainly be back in the valley. will leave with some great memories, and some not so great. High on the list will be winning the provincial mens final, and my son Ben being entertained by styba and rudy, not sure if an 8 yr old should be drinking pints and smoking a cigar (but he turned out alright.)
One of my earliest memories was having a penalty awarded against me by Bill senior......how we need VAR!!
I think I was also one of the few refs ever to give the same person 2 red cards in one game. I cannot remember the players name...but where did you find him Ryan. (div 2 v Nanaimo)...
I was taken out by some of my age group for my stag night. We met in the pub at 6pm, I was home in bed by 8.30.....very ill.
The list could go on and I could never mention all the people who during my early years in Canada literally kept me from going insane, you know who you are and should anyone ever make it across the pond there is a warm welcome awaiting you.
Thank you for being part of my Canadian adventure.
Chris Rook.
To help you find the way back here is a little vid to guide you.

Nate Mavila scored on a stoppage-time penalty to lift Cavalry FC into a 2-2 tie with defending CPL champion Forge FC in Thursday's opening match of the Island Games, marking the start of the Canadian Premier League's pandemic-delayed second season.
Today's edition of CBC Sports' daily newsletter, The Buzzer, covers everything you need to know about the CPL restart. Plus, Bianca Andreescu is out of the U.S. Open, but Eugenie Bouchard won once again.
Thursday's rematch of last year's championship game kicks off the Canadian Premier League's Island Games tournament.
There was a smattering of boos when players from FC Dallas and Nashville SC collectively took a knee during the national anthem before their MLS game on Wednesday night in Frisco, Texas.
It's just the latest step in a stop-start MLS season, with the U.S. border looming large during the global pandemic. But it looks like the Montreal Impact, Toronto FC and Vancouver Whitecaps could see a lot of each other in the near future.
