The Victoria Highlanders will have an Island derby in League1 B.C. as Harbourside FC will become the eighth team in the men’s and women’s soccer circuit beginning next season.
The Harbourside male and female teams will play their home games on the Nanaimo District Secondary field, which will have 1,500 seats installed for the inaugural season next summer, with plans envisioning 3,500 seats in future seasons.
Coates said the team hopes to draw fans from Ladysmith, Chemainus, Parksville, Qualicum, Port Alberni, Ucluelet and Tofino: “It’s very important to us that Harbourside FC is not exclusively a Nanaimo team, but that neighbouring ‘harbour’ communities from both sides of the Island, feel a sense of ownership toward this club.”
League1 B.C. is classified as “semi-pro” and is on the same level as League1 Ontario and the Première Ligue de soccer du Québec, meaning that its men’s champion club will play annually in the Canadian Championship for the Voyageurs Cup with the eight CPL teams and the three Canadian teams in Major League Soccer in the national competition.
