Canada Soccer recently introduced its Club Licensing Program.

The Canada Soccer Club Licensing Program takes a principles-based approach which allows organizations to develop and select the methods by which they operate based on their available resources and unique situation and context. Developed in collaboration with Provincial and Territorial Association members, and incorporating international best practices, the program will set clearly defined standards and expectations for member organizations, recognize excellence in the soccer community, raise the level of clubs, and drive change within the soccer system throughout Canada.

“Canada Soccer acknowledges the work done by Ontario Soccer in building their Club Excellence Program, which provided the foundation for building the Canada Soccer Club Licensing Program,” said Canada Soccer Director of Development Jason de Vos. “Ontario Soccer has been a valued partner in this process, and we look forward to working with them to implement the Club Licensing Program across the province.”
