The History of Our League
BCAPL League #186 was first sanctioned to the Victoria Eight Ball Association (VEBA) for the 1998-1999 season. For the following two seasons (1999-2000 & 2000-2001) Jeremy Coldwell was the League Operator. The VEBA then ran their A-Division as BCAPL #186 for the 2001-2002 season. Bill Unwin took over from VEBA in 2002-2003 and called it the Vancouver Island Pool League. Bill added the CCS sanction #117 when BCA split apart in 2005. Starting with the 2006-2007 season, Nanaimo / Port Alberni linked with the Victoria division. Andrea & Larry Wilson took over the operation of VIPL from Bill in August of 2007. Starting in 2008-2009,
