Portland FC to Take on Vancouver Police this Friday

A big soccer game is on the horizon and it isn’t the Vancouver Whitecaps or Octopi Vancouver that are playing. This Friday, the Portland FC and Portland Phoenix, two of Vancouver’s top Street Soccer teams, will be locking horns with the Vancouver police department. Both sides are confident and they should be. Last year’s tournament at Andy Livingstone was a neck and neck game. The cops were big and (contrary to popular perception) clad in red, not blue. They were also as fast as roadrunners and in the end, despite a fierce game, the speed and skills paid off with a 4 – 2 win for the cops on a VERY rainy Friday night.

This year’s game will be Friday, February 24 at Trillium field at 4 PM sharp. Both teams are gearing up for a fun game. Portland FC and Phoenix in particular are looking for supporters to come out and support the team. If that’s you, make sure you show up and help cheer us to victory. If you’re cheering for the cops – that’s ok too. We’re not THAT competitive (wink).

Who are you? I work as a storyteller. In my spare time I like to volunteer on a variety of environmental and political initiatives as well as help coordinate a soccer team based in the Downtown Eastside. What do you do for fun? I like to cook, cycle, read, chillax, eat French and Japanese food, play with my friends, shoot the breeze with my mom, dad and sisters, explore new and interesting communities, sip the Bump and Grind's delicious Clover brew, and spend time with my lovely red headed partner Theo. What’s your favorite community and why? Right now my favorite community is the Drive. It's hip, happening and varied hosting people as diverse as a Deloitte consultant (you know who you are...) to a stick twirling, leather-homemade-clothes-wearing dude known as "Cloud Man".
