BCSPL FAQs

Starting September 2023, BC Soccer has mandated 9 v 9 soccer for the Under 13 age group (2011 birth year) across the Province. Current U13 (2010 birth year) will be the last age group to play an Intake and full U13 season within the BCSPL. Therefore, for September 2023 onwards clubs would not have teams entering the BCSPL in the U13 Intake. The 2011 Birth Year will commence the Under 14 (Intake) for September 2024.

CMFSC supports the CSA Long-Term Player Development Model, which states: "Soccer is the primary sport, but complimentary sports are encouraged which support movement and athleticism suitable to soccer..."

So yes, you can play other sports, but players must make soccer their primary commitment. Players are expected to be in attendance for all training session and games. The actual interpretation of what level of commitment is required will be up to the team coaches and will vary with the age of the player.
