Derrick Scheper

Derrick Scheper developed through Kilian Academy’s youth programme.

Biography

Harvest pupil Derrick Scheper made his competitive debut through Kilian Academy’s youth programme. Saugeen Times reported his 2022 Canada National Pro gold, with coach Abrie Kilian praising his execution of a prepared game plan. By August 2023, an academy account carried by Bayshore described the Harvest graduate defending that title against Waylon Roote. The final was close: two points to one. Kilian credited collaboration among Grey-Bruce academies for producing a final between two regional athletes.
