Coquitlam product and former Vancouver Whitecaps captain Jeff Clarke doubled his fun at last weekend's Provincial Cup soccer finals.

Clarke coached Surrey United to a 3-0 victory over Columbus FC to claim the Provincial 'A' Cup women's crown, then scored a goal himself to help the Surrey United men's squad achieve the same heady feat via a 3-2 win in the men's 'A' Cup title tilt.

Clarke's two Surrey sides advanced to represent B.C. and compete in the Canadian national club championships in Winnipeg next October.

In the men's Under-21 Provincial Cup final, Steven Causier collected two goals as the Port Moody Gunners trimmed the Victoria Highlanders 2-1 to take top B.C. honours in that division.

Meanwhile, Port Moody AC Selects shaved their Tri-City rivals, the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Crew, 1-0 in the boys U-14 Coastal Cup final.

Both teams move on to the provincial finals in Kamloops in July.
