Both of his parents were Russian-born Mennonite refugees who fled to Canada in the 1920s after the Russian Revolution and settled in Steinbach, Manitoba.
In his youth, Peters also played baseball, softball and ice hockey.
He played for the Steinbach Millers junior hockey team until an eye injury ended his career at age 19.
Victor Alvin "Vic" Peters (March 24, 1955 – March 27, 2016) was a Canadian curler who was a three-time Manitoba curling champion, and one-time national champion as winner of the 1992 Labatt Brier.
These teams dominated curling in Canada and the world during the 1990s, winning four Labatt Briers and two world championships.
Peters was noted for his tuck delivery alongside Burtnyk and Stoughton.
Peters won his first and only national championship on his first visit to the Brier in 1992.
This earned him a trip to the World Curling Championships in Germany where his team finished third.
Peters team won the national championship under the traditional curling rules, but in Europe they played under the 4-rock free guard zone rule.
As the Peters team (and many Canadian curlers) had not adapted to this new rule, they struggled in the World Championships.
He returned to the Brier again the next year in 1993 but did not reach the final.
Peters team won the Safeway Select again returning to the 1997 Brier, where they had a successful week topping off the round robin as the leader, and reached the final to face Kevin Martin where they lost 10–8 in a thrilling final.
Peters won the Ross Harstone Trophy in 1997 as the curler with who best represents sportsmanship, observance of the rules, exemplary conduct and curling ability.
This was Peters' last visit to the Brier.

Peters' son Daley was back to back Manitoba junior champion in 2004 and 2005.

His daughter Liz Fyfe is also a curler and won the 2008 Canadian Junior Curling Championships as a second on the Kaitlyn Lawes team.
Peters again qualified for the Safeway Championship in 2011, this time skipping but throwing third stones while son Daley threw fourth.
Peters surprised many by being one of four teams to qualify for the championship round, but they would lose in the 3 vs 4 game to Mike McEwen in an extra end.
Peters was named as an all-star for the tournament in the third position.
Peters played his entire career with fellow hometown curler Chris Neufeld.
