In its inaugural season, CUSA operated leagues for approximately 30 teams and 600 players.

Letter from the President Dear members, stakeholders and fans of the beautiful game in Calgary, It is my pleasure to present the 2015 Annual Report for Calgary United Soccer Association. There have been significant achievements across the association in the year. As reflected through this report, the association operates from a sound financial and strategic platform enabling it to provide leadership for the sport now and into the future. As I reflect back on the past year I am not only proud of what has been accomplished, but also of the direction of CUSA. We have become a more efficient organization by becoming a governance board and letting administration lead CUSA’s day-to- day business. Our focus has been clearly on developing an organization in which the sport at a local level can flourish. Our participation numbers continue to grow in an extremely competitive environment for leisure time activities. The 2015 outdoor season saw 234 men’s teams register between the AMSL to the Over 55 divisions. The summer Coed program saw 73 teams register for indoor and another six for the new outdoor Coed league. The combined total of 313 teams is the largest number of teams yet for CUSA in a single season. This is a testament to the fun, inclusive and social environment that the game of soccer offers, as well as the quality programs that CUSA continues to offer its members. Building on the successful hosting of the 2014 Western Masters and Classics Nationals, the co- hosting of the 2015 Canadian Soccer Association Sport Chek National Club Championships Challenge and Jubilee Trophies from October 6 to 12 is anticipated to exceed the expectations of Canadian Soccer and the teams participating. This week long event will showcase the best adult provincial club champions from across Canada. Thank you to my fellow Board Members for their support and service to the sport during the year. Two long serving Board Members, each having served your association for 10 years, are stepping down. David Inhaber has served as Treasurer for his entire tenure, leading the Board and Administration through the budget and audit processes and establishing financial policies and procedures to ensure that the association has a strong financial foundation and is well positioned for the future. Michael Oliver has held various roles on the Board throughout his tenure, serving as Vice President and Facility Committee Representative, as well as serving on the Referee Affairs Committee and Discipline Committee. He has routinely been a familiar face representing CUSA at games and provincials. On behalf of the Board, Administration and the entire membership I want to thank these two gentlemen for their years of service to the Association and wish them well as they move onto future endeavours. All the best in soccer and otherwise to our members during the upcoming year, Sincerely, Jasprit Lail Table of Contents 5 Highlights 7 Board & Administration Report – Succeeding in Our Mission 9 Association & League Structure 11 Men’s Program 16 Co-ed Program 19 Cups, Tournaments & Special Events 23 Discipline Report 25 Giving Back 27 Financial Review 30 Additional Information 31 Standings Highlights Participation highlights For the period ended March 31, 2015 and subsequent events up to September 15, 2015.

Successfully negotiated lower bank processing fees. Noteworthy Achievements Congratulations to Drew Fischer! In 2015, Drew was awarded the FIFA international badge, making him a member of the world's most elite pool of soccer referees. It is an honour currently held by only two other Canadian men. His most memorable moment has been refereeing an exhibition game in Dallas between A.S. Roma and Real Madrid C.F., two of the largest clubs in the world. "It doesn’t get much better than that when you get to watch some of the world’s best soccer players from the best seat in the house,” Drew said. Succeeding in Our Mission The Board and Administration of CUSA are dedicated to fulfilling the association’s mission through the establishment and achievement of the following goals and objectives: 1. Uphold the Foundation Act as diligent stewards of the association by regularly assessing and refining policies and procedures related to governance, leadership and financial stability. 2. Grow the Game Contribute positively to growth in soccer by delivering superior programs and services while embracing growth and diversity through organizational development and partnerships. 3. Enrich the Experience Endeavour to continually improve the experience of members through effective program administration and ensuring access to quality facilities. During the year ended March 31, 2015 and the subsequent period up to September 15, 2015, the Board and Administration successfully completed the following initiatives in support of its objectives: Associate Membership categories were inserted into the Association’s bylaws. Associate membership information packages were developed and discussed with organizations of interest. In 2015 Copa Futsal became an Associate Member of CUSA. CUSA continues to provide support to emerging programs and special events. Since the opening of the Genesis Centre for Wellness CUSA has worked with the Aga Khan Men’s soccer program with the provision of officials. As a continuation of the support provided in the 2014 exhibition season, the 2015 USL PDL Foothills FC were registered members of CUSA. In their first full season within the USL the team was comprised of several home town players and narrowly missed a playoff berth, establishing a strong foundation for the 2016 campaign. The inaugural Indoor Nations Cup saw 26 teams, representing 17 nations in 3 different divisions, compete over nine days at the end of the indoor season. Standing room only crowds were common most evenings of the competition. Seven teams formed the Over 55 Division that competed in the 2015 outdoor season, representing the first division for this age group of its kind in Alberta! In 2015, a pilot season for outdoor Coed league was launched with six teams participating. CUSA co-hosted the 2014 Western Championships / Classics Nationals with CWSA for 10 of the top Masters and Classics teams from across Canada. CUSA co-hosted ASA Senior Soccerfest and Indoor Senior Provincials with CWSA for 102 senior teams from across the province, playing 144 games within 18 different divisions.

  • PCCC Roster History Intro
    HISTORY OF PCCC * The following history reflects corrections to some text that appeared in previous rosters. Milestones Curling began in Pointe Claire during the year 1918 on the ice of Lake St. Louis in the bay at the foot of Brunet Avenue. Keeping the ice clear of snow proved to be too onerous, and so in 1919 the game was moved to the quarry on Cartier Avenue, where it remained during the years 1920 and 1921. Irons had been borrowed from the Montreal Thistle Curling Club. October 29, 1921 – A group of 24 sportsmen met in the old frame schoolhouse on Cedar Avenue and founded the Pointe Claire Curling Club. Soon thereafter, the signatures of 65 original club members were obtained. S.H. (Sam) Ward was elected as first President. The Pointe Claire Curling Club was admitted to the Canadian Branch of the Royal Caledonia Curling Club on November 28, 1921. February 28, 1922 – A "highly sociable" evening formally opened the new 2-storey, 2- sheet clubhouse on the corner of Cartier Avenue and Lakeshore Road, designed and built in less than three months at a cost of $3,950. The land, leased from the Grand Trunk Railway for 5 years at $25 per year, was later purchased from the CNR for $1,000.The first annual meeting at the Club on April 10, 1922. November 24, 1922 – A group of 27 sportswomen gathered at the new club and unanimously agreed to form the Ladies’ Pointe Claire Curling Club. Mrs. G. Parke was elected as the first president. February 1, 1926 – The Ewing Trophy was donated by Sam Ewing for a competition that began that season.

  • 2019 Canada Soccer Annual Report
    A MESSAGE FROM STEVEN REED, PRESIDENT During my tenure as President, I have had the privilege to continue the momentum established this past decade to ensure that the foundation for Canada Soccer Nation would be further strengthened. Although this Annual Report reflects on the year of 2019, it is that solid footing that has guided us through an unprecedented time in not only our sport but our world. When I reflect on what I will remember most fondly about my three years as President of Canada Soccer, it all comes down to one thing: the people. It is the people within the Canadian soccer community who have banded together to ensure that our players, coaches, officials, volunteers, fans and their families are safe and will return to the pitch and the sidelines when they are secure. It’s about the team this organization has assembled over the last 10 years who, collectively, have brought us to where we are today – the proud co-hosts, with Mexico and the United States, of the 2026 FIFA World Cup™. We are a country to which other FIFA nations now see as a leader in the soccer world. It’s about Peter Montopoli, who as General Secretary brought necessary professionalism to the organization that laid the foundation for all the successes that followed. It’s about my predecessor and now Concacaf President, Victor Montagliani, who believed in—and advanced—our dream of hosting a men’s FIFA World Cup™ on Canadian soil for the first time. It’s about John Herdman, who revamped the women’s program, taking our Women’s National Team to back-to-back bronze medals at the Olympic Games and a place among the top countries in the world.

    Building Our Game. Uniting Ontario.1 CCE O R A S S IO S R O A C T I A N T O I O E N H T • EST. 1901 • President`s Message 2014 was a successful year for the Ontario Soccer Association as a result of the excellent work done by our staff, districts and clubs in providing outstanding programs for players, coaches and match officials of all ages. From our Long Term Player Development initiative at the earliest ages, to our adult soccer leagues, we offer tremendous opportunities for players, coaches and match officials. Whether young athletes want to play for fun and fitness or aspire to a future in soccer, we provide programs that make a difference. It all begins with our dedication to grassroots recreational soccer and continues through our talented pathway, which includes two standards-based leagues for both males and females; the Ontario Player Development League (OPDL) and League1 Ontario, a semi-professional league for our top players. Soccer remains the sport played by more people of all ages in Ontario than any other. We strive to constantly make the soccer experience better for everyone involved. Our enhanced coaching and match official development courses have generated widespread interest, with more coaches and officials becoming certified than at any time in our history. Better approaches to coaching and officials in turn help to enrich the environment for developing players. At the administrative level, we are working toward modernizing our governance structure in an effort to become even more responsive and efficient in the way we deliver soccer.
