The Vancouver Island Raiders are a Canadian Junior Football team based in Nanaimo, British Columbia. The Raiders 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. After an aborted move of the Victoria Rebels to Nanaimo in late 2004, the Raiders were founded in 2005, and won the CJFL championship in 2006, 2008 and 2009. The Raiders have also won consecutive BCFC titles in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. Having won the CJFL championship 3 times in 5 years, the Vancouver Island Raiders' success in such short time has come under fire from many outside sources. Almost 90 percent of their team consists of outside players that have been scouted from towns (mainly Saskatchewan).
