Referee After successfully Competitions implementing and evaluating Development the outcomes of our 2013-16 Strategic Plan, Alberta Soccer’s Strategic Planning Committee embarked on developing the 2016-19 Strategic Plan which was officially launched in April, 2016. This time around, rather than relying mainly on an internal process and committee to develop the plan, Alberta Soccer consulted with our Districts at multiple meetings to help craft and expand on objectives and outcomes. We believe that this input has given us a plan that reflects the diverse needs and desires from across the province.

The vision and mission remain the same but as the Association continues to progress towards a centre of excellence, the alignment with Canada Soccer’s Strategic Plan pillars takes on greater significance and our priorities and objectives have become more ambitious.

4 TECHNICAL PROGRAMMING

With Canada Soccer’s unveiling of their official pathway in 2014, Alberta Soccer built off of this pathway to integrate our own programming while aligning with Canada Soccer’s programming. The Alberta Soccer pathway is aligned with principles of Long-Term Player Development (LTPD) and built around three streams of play: recreational, competitive and EXCEL. The recreational and competitive streams are largely delivered by districts and clubs across the province with the exception of the Alberta Soccer Mini Stars program, Provincial Championships and Alberta Major Soccer League. In 2016, Alberta Soccer was formally approved to implement Regional EXCEL centres in both Edmonton and Calgary with the assistance of FC Edmonton and the Vancouver Whitecaps. These partnerships have allowed Alberta Soccer to continue to place players in National Team Programming and Professional Club Environments.

These partnerships have allowed Alberta Soccer to continue to place players in National Team programming and Professional Club environments. These two partnerships have also resulted in a collaboration between both pro clubs, Canada Soccer and Alberta Soccer resulting in Canada Soccer’s REX program for female players being introduced in Alberta as well as a Whitecaps Academy Centre for boys in the South.

Teams performed well playing quality football which resulted in a number of Alberta players being identified by staff from the Vancouver Whitecaps and Canada Soccer. This showcase event which will expand in 2017 by including additional teams from Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and PEI will now become an annual event to assist the Vancouver Whitecaps and Canada Soccer in their player identification process.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors of Alberta Soccer Association

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Alberta Soccer Association, which comprise the statement of financial position as at October 31, 2016, the statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

KPMG LLP is a Canadian limited liability partnership and a member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity. KPMG Canada provides services to KPMG LLP. Page 2

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alberta Soccer Association as at October 31, 2016, and its results of operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations.

4 ALBERTA SOCCER ASSOCIATION Notes to Financial Statements

Year ended October 31, 2016

Nature of operations:

Alberta Soccer Association (the "Association") provides the administrative and technical development framework for all soccer programs within the Province of Alberta. The Association, incorporated under the provisions of the Societies Act of Alberta, is a non-profit organization within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and is exempt from income taxes.

1. Significant accounting policies:

The Association prepares its financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations which is Part III of the CPA Canada Handbook - Accounting. The Association's significant accounting policies are as follows:

(a) Use of estimates:

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(b) Cash:

Cash consists of cash on hand and amounts on deposit in demand-type accounts less cheques issued and outstanding. Cash includes amounts on deposit in demand-type accounts arising from specific fundraising activities which may be subject to restriction.

Inventories distributed for no or nominal value or consumed in the delivery of services are stated at the lower of cost and net replacement cost. Inventory held for sale is stated at the lower of average weighted cost and net realizable value.

1. Significant accounting policies (continued):

(d) Property and equipment:

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Donated assets are recognized at fair value which is deemed cost. Amortization is provided using the straight-line method at the following annual rates:

Asset Rate

Office equipment 20% Technical equipment 20% Computer equipment 33% Leasehold improvements Lease term

(e) Revenue recognition:

The Association follows the deferral method of accounting for contributions. Restricted contributions received in the year that relate to future expenditures are recorded as deferred revenue. Unrestricted contributions are recognized as revenue when received. Contributions for the acquisition of property and equipment and donated property and equipment are recorded as unamortized capital contributions and recognized to income on the same basis as the amortization of the assets for which the contributions were received.

Fees are recognized as revenue in the year for which services are provided. Fees received in advance are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue from the sale of inventory is recognized when the product is delivered and collection is reasonable assured. Excess revenue (expenditure) reported in the statement of changes in net assets for investment in property and equipment are the net amount of depreciation and revenue attributable to property and equipment and represent a transfer of unrestricted net assets.

Interest income is recorded on a time proportion basis. Interest income earned on restricted contributions that are similarly restricted by the contributor is recorded as deferred revenue until the eligible expenditures have been incurred at which time the interest is recognized as revenue.

(f) Contributed services:

The work of the Association is dependent on the voluntary services of many members. Due to the difficulty of determining fair value of these services, contributed services are not recognized in the financial statement. The Association may receive distributable materials for distribution to member organizations. The Association does not recognize the revenue or related expense for these materials.

11. Financial instrument risks and concentration of risk:

The Association’s financial instruments consist of cash, term deposits, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Association's operations are concentrated to Alberta and all banking is concentrated to one large, federally registered and insured financial institution. The Association’s accounts receivable are primarily comprised of amounts due from various local soccer districts and associations and collegiate associations in Alberta with some funds due from others. The exposure to credit risk is limited to the amounts receivable for which local soccer districts, associations and other strategic partners such as collegiate associations are required to be in good standing to participate in the Association. When there are doubts concerning collection, the amounts are written-off or an allowance is provided by the Board who reviews what actions, if any, they may take against the local districts and associations or other debtor. The credit risk exposure in the current year is unchanged from the prior year.

Substantially all of the Association’s operations are transacted in Canadian currency, accordingly foreign currency risk is not considered significant. The nature of investments is limited to interest bearing bank issued deposits of a short-term nature, accordingly, interest rate risk is not considered significant to the operations of the Association.

12. Comparative information:

In the current year, the Board altered the method of budgeting to provide greater segregation of items previously included in administration category. The financial statements have been prepared based on this segregated budgeting practice, accordingly, certain amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes, where applicable, to conform to the presentation used in the current year. The changes do not affect prior year total revenues or the excess of revenues over expenditures.
