Raiders Alumni
Everyone who has worn the crest since 1991.
The programme started in 1991, so there are now thirty-five years of Raiders. Some went on to play professionally — Andrew Harris, Nic Demski, Brady Oliveira, Sean Jamieson, Charlie Ringland — and the school has produced ten CFL champions, more professional football players than any other high school in the country.
Most did not, and the club is theirs just as much. Ninety or so players come through this programme every year and the overwhelming majority of them get a season, a changing room and a set of people out of it rather than a career. That is the point of it.
The club is rebuilding its record of who played and when. The league’s own listings only reach back to 2023; everything before that exists in programmes, team photographs and people’s memories — which is why the join form below matters more than it looks like it should.
