2022/23 FALL/WINTER – RECREATIONAL YOUTH SOCCER PROGRAM – NANAIMO

2022/23 Fall Surf Soccer – Recreational League

Our Fall Soccer program embraces all levels of soccer and commitments for kids in the region.
We have options which consists of only league games on Saturday for youth ages 6 (2016 born)- 11(2011 born)  (U7 to U12) at no cost to the parents. This is a recreational program where you simply just pay the insurance fee for the kids.
In addition, parents have an option to add our Surf Soccer Skills Centre (Academy) sessions to their registration should they choose. These sessions can be selected for 1x week or 2x week to get in additional play and skill development.
Our program will run for a total of 10 weeks. The program will be run during 2 time periods. Please note your $52.50 fee covers both time periods ( one registration registers you in both time periods).
  • September 10, 2022 to October 15, 2022  (no session on October 8, 2022)
  • February 4, 2023  to March 11, 2023 (no session on Feb 18, 2022)

Splitting this into 2 separate time periods allows us to keep the kids and parents away from the wet weather and allows families and players to enjoy other sports and activities during the winter months such as skiing, basketball, volleyball, futsal, etc…

Players who register for Soccer Saturday will be placed onto teams by school proximity. Please note this is going to be run as a typical house league program with an emphasis on fun and skill development through play.
All games will take place in Nanaimo with our home field being in North Nanaimo (Harry Wipper Park). This program will be lead by our technical team with some added help from certified volunteer coaches.
For those players looking for more soccer, we will be creating various opportunities to play in additional games, tournaments, and festivals against neighboring clubs and academies on Vancouver Island.
