Good question, I'll have to look that up. BC still have a league in the Canadian Junior Football league with Canadian rules. The now defunct Simon Fraser U played lower level NCAA ball but UBC is three down. In Rourke's case, he was born in BC but raised in Oakville Ontario I believe.Doesn't BC still run American rules in high school too? So really he was going to be exposed to the dream of the NFL at an early age regardless
He's certainly an age at which I daresay most prefer the dominant exposure NFL game over the CFL. Rourke certainly went after it relocating for his high school senior year in the States and increasing level of NCAA college ball.
