The game of 7-on-7 football has been growing over the years, with star players like Canadian and current Pittsburgh Steelers receiver Chase Claypool using the game to further their development.

The event was put on by two-time Gey Cup Champion Keon Raymond, who was announced as the new Director of Football Operations for the Kodiaks last month.

The Kodiaks are one of the founding members of the 7-on-7 Association of Canada.

Raymond is expected to be in attendance on Friday, July 9 at Masich Place Stadium for what Club President Craig Briere has stated will be the “biggest announcement in the history of football in Northern B.C.”
