??????????Our Goals:

• Our recreational program will continue to provide soccer for every player who wishes to play within our community.

• Through continuing prudent financial management and fundraising initiatives, the club will have secured the use of year-round training facility within the community in collaboration with the city and/or local school board.
• Our elite players of both genders will be regularly securing scholarships to university and college programs, competing for places at the Toronto Football Club and being selected to provincial and national teams.
• Our top-level coaches will share their coaching expertise with less experienced coaches and older players creating a cycle of knowledge that will sustain the club into the future.
• New complements to our stable staff of professional coaches will be recruited primarily from players graduating from our teams.
• Players of all abilities will return year after year because at our club they learn skills and improve their game while having a great time.
