Vancouver FC fields only one team in each division in the GMSL (Metro/Girls league) and BCYSSL (Selects/Boys League). Competition for places on our teams is very high. Nevertheless, it is important that all youth players who are passionate about soccer and see the game as their first choice sport get a chance to play and we encourage you to continue playing for your current Club if Vancouver FC is not the right choice for you.
All players attending our Selection Camps must pre-register. Our selection process will be coordinated by our Technical Director, Jason Jordan who is a well-known former professional soccer player. Jason will be working with our professional team coaches and outside evaluators to select each team. To recover the costs of equipment and professional evaluations we will be charging a nominal $20 fee for the evaluations. Fees will be collected at your first camp and can be paid in cash or cheque payable to Vancouver FC.
Players are encouraged to arrive 30 minutes early for their first camp and 15 minutes early for all subsequent camps to register and get ready for the session. Players are expected to wear proper footwear and dress weather appropriately. All players are asked to take care of their own hydration.
If you are selected to one of our teams, you will be required to attend two practices per week from approximately August 15 to April 15th and play games every weekend. Please note that this will include some long weekends.
If you have any questions regarding the selection process, please contact our Technical Director,

Although the following is in the Guide under U11 & U12 Program Information it got missed from the Rules page.
FIFA LAW 4: Player's Equipment - Safety
A player must not use equipment or wear anything that is dangerous to himself or another person (including any kind of jewellery.)
Religious Articles
Religious headwear may be worn at games, however, all jewelry must be removed (this applies to referees' as well). The only time that there is an exception is for MedicAlert and religious bracelets. In these cases both must be totally covered by tape so as not to cause injury to the player or anyone else (2.5 cm either side). If necklaces are worn for religious purposes they must be taped so that they do not come out from underneath the player's jersey.
All piercings must be removed.
Casts
Providing the cast is completely covered by bubble wrap or foam the referee can make an observation and decide whether it is of danger to the player or anyone else.
(authorized by Marc Bowley VYSA Referee-in-Chief) |

District organized soccer is for players from 5 to 17 years old and starts in September through March.Contact the Club closest to you to see if they have a team in your child's age level. Although some clubs run programs for players younger than 5, you can also contact your local community centre to see if they run a "little kickers" type of program. |
