A 2-0 defeat at the hands of the Vancouver Mainland Soccer League鈥檚 Club Inter has dashed the Aldergrove Premier men鈥檚 hopes of becoming the first ever Fraser Valley Soccer League team to win a provincial championship.

It was the first time that a Fraser Valley Soccer League team played for the highest honour the province has to offer.

Aldergrove United, on the back of a title-winning season in the FVSL, hoped to be the first Fraser Valley team to lift Men鈥檚 BC Provincial Cup in the trophy鈥檚 95 year history.

Club Inter took the Provincial A Cup with a 2-0 win over Aldergrove United Premier men at Burnaby Lake Park on Sunday, May 14.

However, this season, Aldergrove鈥檚 semi-final win over Westside on May 6 carries more weight because a win qualifies the team for the Nationals, a tournament that the FVSL is hosting in October.

B.C. is getting two berths, so a finals appearance makes Aldergrove the FVSL鈥檚 first ever entrant at a National Championship.
