Victoria Rebels

Victoria Rebels

The Victoria Rebels are a Canadian Junior Football team based in Victoria, British Columbia. The Rebels play in the eight-team B.C. Football Conference, which itself is part of the Canadian Junior Football League (CJFL) and competes annually for the national title known as the Canadian Bowl. The club has operated continuously since the late 1960's in Victoria, having previously been known as the Sharks, Payless, and the Hornets. The Rebels were founded in 1985, and were the BCFL champions in 2003.

On November 4th, 2004 the club announced that the team's Board of Directors voted to move operations of the team to the city of Nanaimo for the 2005 season and beyond. However, at a special general meeting of the Vancouver Island Junior Football Society on December 21st, the society reversed the vote to relocate to Nanaimo. The society then replaced the executive and board of directors with a new board of volunteers, and vowed to stay in Victoria.
