About
New West Soccer Club Youth Programs offers a range of soccer activities, including the Player Development Academy, U4 & U5 Inspire Program, U6 & U7 Mini League, U8, U9 & U10 Rec League, Cascadia League for recreational and development teams, and seasonal Spring Break and Summer Camps. The program also includes Skill Enhancement options such as Future Stars, PLUS, and Development streams, a Goalkeeper Development Academy, a Power, Speed and Agility Performance Program, the CIBC Soccer Fests program, and a Women’s Soccer Training Academy. Children who are turning 3 in the calendar year register as U4, and “U” means “Under” in the age group names.
• Ages: 3–18 years old
• Schedule: Most teams generally start play the first or second week of September, with a Christmas break in mid-December and practices restarting the week after the holidays; the season usually ends for U4–U8 in the second week in March, and older teams may play longer depending on their success.
New Westminster Soccer Club has run Fall and Winter soccer programs for over 15 years and states it has been ingrained in the community since 1965. The club’s mission states that it is dedicated to promoting participation, fair play, and increasing skills in soccer, with a vision that everyone can play, develop, and succeed, and it lists inclusivity, development, community engagement, fairness, transparency, safety, fun, hard work, encouragement, and passion for the game as core values. The club notes that it fosters an inclusive and welcoming community, supports community outreach through charitable events, volunteer programs, and community-building activities, and is supported by a large group of volunteers; it also identifies Maple Lodge Farms LTD.® as a sponsor of the U8 boys and girls teams for the upcoming Spring League and describes the CIBC Soccer Fests program as a youth development program targeted at children under 12.
The club states that it has a highly qualified coaching staff that includes experienced coaches and trainers with a deep understanding of the game, and it highlights a holistic player development focus that includes specialized goalkeeper training and Soccer For All initiatives, as well as programs such as the Inspire Program for young players, Special Adults Programs, and the Making Progress Program. The leadership and operations team includes board members and staff such as President Sukh Sadhre, Treasurer Maggie Zhou, Secretary Nobu Yamasaki, several vice-presidents for different age and gender groups, a Risk Manager, Head Referee Joey Ratcliffe, Adult Programs Manager Mike Barnard, Club Manager Sandra Lenahan, Registrar Nel Grond, Equipment Manager Sorin Lungu, Ombudsperson Farah Bertoia, Uniform Manager Cailey Gardner, Technical Director Niko Marcina, Assistant Technical Director Henderson Mphepo, and Scheduler Teresa Browne.
For equipment and logistics, the club states that children need soccer cleats, shin guards, and a water bottle, while jerseys, shorts, and socks are provided by the club. It notes that goalkeepers typically provide their own gear at the divisional level (U13 and older), but the club provides goalkeeper gear for U8 through U12. The club also states that the only time players may not play is if their field has been closed, and that there are no refunds issued after Wednesday, March 4th for Spring League participants.
