Gaiters coaches have ‘positive attitude’

The Gaiters add two out-of-province commits and one provincial commit to their team.

Tight end Justin Kular from the North Surrey Bears already feels at home with the Bishop’s Gaiters.

Oliver Brunett, a receiver from Fredericton High School, and Axel-Étienne Yanibada, a defensive tackle from Collège André-Grasset, will also be joining the Gaiters.

Justin Kular

It will be a long flight to Bishop’s University for Justin Kular of Surrey, BC, but he doesn’t mind. β€œI chose to commit because the school has some great programs and the coaching staff and players were very respectful and made me feel like I was home,” Kular said, who is interested in criminology.

β€œCoaching staff was amazing. All the coaches really cared about their players and they all had a positive attitude,” he added.

Kular has played for both the North Langley Kodiaks and the North Surrey Bears. The 6’4, 225lbs athlete won a championship title in 2018 and was also the β€˜most outstanding offensive player’ that season. He won an MVP award in 2015 and a coaches’ choice award in 2014.

Oliver Burnett

Oliver Brunett is a member of the Fredericton High School Black Kats (NBHSFL) where he played as both a wide receiver and free safety. Standing at 5’11, 185lbs, the product of Fredericton, New Brunswick, has also played as a strong safety and middle linebacker.

Axel-Γ‰tienne Yanibada

Axel-Γ‰tienne Yanibada is from Laval, QuΓ©bec, where he played high school ball with Les Loups de CurΓ©-Antoine-Labelle (RSEQ). The 6’1, 290lbs nose guard and tackle then joined Les PhΓ©nix du CollΓ¨ge AndrΓ©-Grasset (RSEQ Division 1).
