Winter Program

We are pleased to announce the beginning of our third season of Fall and Winter programs.

We're really excited to get started. We are always striving to improve the quality and affordability of our program, so that everyone can take part.

The registration is only open for the returned players at the moment since we have limited spots in the winter.

When the program will start:

The program will start on the 19th of October. Two weeks earlier than last year.

How many sessions will be:

For the categories that won't play in the league: They will have 15 sessions.

For the categories that will participate in the league: They will have 20 sessions with ability to increase.  

Which teams will play in the league:

All of U9-10-11-12-13 and 14 boys in addition to U15F/16F will participate in Concordia league which takes place at Stade de Montreal in 7V7 Format.

The league consists of 10 matches every other week. The schedule will be out shortly and the games will be on Saturdays and Sundays. (No fixed dates for the league per category.)

In case of practice/games conflict, the practices might be moved from Saturday to Sunday and vice versa on a weekly basis.

When and where will be the practices:

For the teams that participate in the league, the practices will be on weekends and some on weekdays.

Concordia organize the 36h tournament. Some teams might join but the fees will be paid by the participants.

Depending on the number of registrations, we might merge some groups like girls and kids U8 and below.

Some head coaches will be there but in the winter we always have experienced coaches to run the sessions.
