Subway Bowl’s AAA post-season football party a week away, so here’s your first look at the championship draw

LANGLEY — Let the Subway Bowl’s month-long festival begin!

OK, OK, we’ve still got three more Triple A conference clashes on tap today, but only one affects the draw for the opening round of B.C. high school football playoff games set to kickoff next Friday.
