The commitment

Competitive teams generally practice twice per week. The amount of travel depends partly on the age group and the level of the team. Competitive teams usually enter a few weekend tournaments. Most of them operate year round and play in indoor as well as outdoor leagues.

Where do they play?

The U8 to U11 teams play in the York Region Youth Competitive Soccer League.

Our boys competitive teams from U12 and up play in the Central Soccer League. They play teams from York Region, Toronto, Durham Region and occasionally from Huronia.

Our girls competitive teams from U12 and up play in the Central Girls Soccer League. They play teams from York Region, Toronto, Durham Region and occasionally from Huronia.

The goal for all of our competitive teams is continuous improvement and advancement, and for teams from U14 and up, to gain promotion to the OYSL (Ontario Youth Soccer League), the highest level of competition in Ontario.

In 2009 we had one Boys Team in the OYSL and in 2010 we expect to have two. In addition, our U21 Women`s team played in the Ontario Women`s Soccer League (OWSL) in 2009.

The cost

The basic registration fee plus a competitive player fee. The extra fee is necessary because of the higher cost of registration, uniforms, fields and referees for competitive teams.
