    T’was the night before Christmas, when all through the UBC football house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. Then the Grinch broke in and because he’s a swine, he took away their wins and gave them a $1,250 fine.

    Indeed, you are a mean one, Mr. Grinch.

    Over the Christmas break, the Canada West University Athletic Association relished its role as the Grinch, forcing the UBC football team to forfeit their six regular season wins and their one playoff win, leaving them with an official record of 0-8. UBC was also fined $1,250 and placed on probation for the 2012 season.

  • UBC Thunderbirds found to be using ineligible player, team on probation until 2013

    By January 5, 2012

    The University of British Columbia Thunderbirds football team has forfeited its entire 2011 season after it was found that it was fielding an ineligible player.

    The player, defensive lineman Connor Flynn, had already completed his eligibility at the beginning of the season, after having played five years of junior football with the Vancouver Trojans before being recruited to UBC in 2009. According to a Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) statement, UBC “self-disclosed” the violation and co-operated fully with the investigation. It went on to say that the violation was unintentional.
