Home Games Finally Back on Campus | Vancouver News

Author: The Daily News Now! September 12, 2026 Duration: 1:41

After 15 years of playing off-campus due to a dangerously uneven, poorly draining grass field, Spectrum Community School’s athletes finally have a home turf — and it’s game-changing. Thanks to a decade-long effort fueled by $300K from the District of Saanich and $20K from Peninsula Co-op, plus contributions from local sports clubs and community groups, students now boast a state-of-the-art all-weather surface. Players are thrilled — no more concrete-like fields, no more missing family support — just pure school spirit. Principal Aaron Norris credits the collaborative push that turned vision into reality, and while the new field is a huge win, the school’s already eyeing upgrades like a clubhouse and score clock to keep building community pride and lasting memories.
