2023 RAW Fraser Valley Spring Football Camp Award Winners

The RAW Sports Chilliwack weekend camp had over 100 participants and featured some of the best talent in the Fraser Valley as well as many players who travelled to Chilliwack from across BC and even a few from Alberta.

The weekend featured a full pro-style combine followed by over 10 hours of individual position specific skill development which consisted of indy, 1-on-1s, skelly, trench challenges, special teams drills, and much more.

At the end of the camp, positional coaches picked an MVP at each position and collectively selected an Offensive MVP, Defensive MVP, and Leadership award winner. This camp was loaded with talent which made decisions extremely difficult for RAW Coaches. Checkout all of the award winners below:
