Since 1953, the BC Coastal Cup Championships has been recognized as a prestigious event for all competitive youth soccer teams. 300 teams, consisting of 5,000 boys and girls, will compete to be crowned the youth soccer champion teams in BC’s Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island.

Sincere congratulations to those who have worked hard to organize this highly anticipated event. I wish all participants the best of luck, and hope that those of you visiting our City will have the opportunity to return. Malcolm D.
