Dave Ravenhill, who wore No. 12 and played for the Victoria Vistas of the original professional Canadian Soccer League, died of a heart attack in 2020 at age 57.
It’s called the World Cup but soccer in Canada is still in many ways a tight-knit community. This week it paid tribute to one of its own with Canadian coach John Herdman and players holding up T-shirts in Qatar honouring the late Dave Ravenhill of Victoria.
“A world-class tribute, at a world event, for a world-class guy,” said Vince Greco, executive director of the Vancouver Island Soccer League. The Vistas were coached by Bruce Wilson, who captained Canada in the 1986 World Cup. Ravenhill was a huge Liverpool fan, having met many of the players, hence the “You’ll Never Walk Alone” reference on the commemorative T-shirts.
