Rarely are the stakes this high in the Island rivalry.

The V.I. Raiders and the Westshore Rebels meet this Saturday (Oct. 15) in the B.C. Football Conference playoffs. The Raiders will have to head over the Malahat to face the Rebels, who finished first in the conference to earn home-field advantage.

“To use the old cliché, this is why you play football, for games like this,” said Jerome Erdman, Raiders coach. “I think everybody’s going to be excited.”
