An Observer Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Saw this on you tube. I think this kid is from Alberta I believe and seems to be with Vitesse Arnhem via Peterborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolando Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 He was one of our U-17s last year, right? Mentioned by SCF08 here: http://www.canadian-soccer.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13829 Found a couple of recent forum posts about him: "Octavio is a Canadian-born central midfielder with great energy and technical ability. Has experience of playing in Mexico." Under previous clubs it says "Atlas in Gualajara" http://www.theposh.premiumtv.co.uk/page/YouthTeamDetail/0,,10427~1085895,00.html and some supporter gossip about him here: http://www.londonroad.net/Forums/showthread.php?t=27954 "yer he is playing in holland now my mate plays for the youth team and said he wasnt in the team anymore and one day anounced on the bus that he was leaving and good luck to everyone" "Wasn't able to get a work permit or something along those lines." Apparently he plays under the name Tavinho now. Brazilian (Mexican??) Canadian, perhaps?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Ault Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I stand to be corrected but I believe he has dual Canadian-Mexican citizenship and it is he indeed who played for our U17s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyola Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 quote:Originally posted by Bill Ault loyola - you don't actually trust the CSA site to be accurate do you? héhéhé I've written so many times in the past to correct their numerous mistakes about players but I have to admit that the new database on players is impressive, they've done a good job. You can know who played 18 min in an U-20 friendly in 1979 against Italia Shooters.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soju Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Now someone in the youtube comments who claims to know Octavio says he's Canadian of Mexican background. Hmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Crocker#3 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I used to play with Octavio. Not only on our junior high/high school teams but also our club teams here in Alberta where we grew up, his mom is Mexican and his dad is white (unsure of nationality) spent a lot of time with him during those times. Great midfielder and forward, I was the sweeper, I had lots of assists with him as my mid/forward. He and I were team captains. When he moved from I believe edenborough I think is who he went to. He went onto DJ and has made music, after that he has become a body builder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
