Pacific Football Club hosted open tryouts for its new mascot ahead of its first season, and three B次元官网网址渁nonymousB次元官网网址� competitors danced it out for the position of on-call team mascot B次元官网网址� the B次元官网网址榮peciesB次元官网网址� or B次元官网网址榯ypeB次元官网网址� of which will be revealed later this month.

Each competitor had to play a quick game of charades and had 45 seconds to show off their dance moves in hopes that they would be the one to join the Vancouver Island soccer team on home soil when the Canadian Premier League season kicks off in April.
