The KSYSA Board is thrilled to kick off an exciting season!
After an extensive strategic planning process and consideration of the feedback we received throughout previous seasons and from our Thought Exchange, we’ve made decisions that we believe will benefit our community.
We will be updating our registration system to Team Snap and have this new website! A great deal of time and effort has gone into shaping these plans, and we kindly ask for your patience as we implement new systems.
Our Spring Recreational program is divided into Mini (U6-U10) and Youth (U12 - U18) and provides players an opportunity to develop skills and have fun. This league generally runs from May through June, kids have two field times per week, and the potential for a couple of special events (depending on volunteer commitment).
Our development program is for U10 - U18 players that want to extend their season and play in tournaments. This league generally runs March through September with 3 field times per week, a one month summer break and have the opportunity to attend a minimum of 2 tournaments depending on their age.
Our Fall/Winter Indoor program is a recreational program that provides U10 - U15 players an opportunity to develop skills and have fun. Our fall program runs October to December. Our winter program runs January to February.

The grassroots coaching practical courses are a go as we have enough people registered to run the courses.![]()
There is perhaps some confusion so let me clarify.
1. You only attend the practical course for which you are signed up for. For example, coaches having done the "Learn to Train” online course will do the “Learn to Train” practical course. You do not need to come or try to sign up for all 4 practical sessions. Only for the practical session for which you have done the online course for.![]()
2. If you haven’t registered for the practical course through coachcentre.ca before the practical session, then please don’t show up to the course. You must register for the practical through coachcentre.ca in order to attend.![]()

Coaches!!!![]()
We are quickly approaching the dates for the practical part of your grassroots soccer course. For full certification, you must complete the online portion AND the practical portion of the course. Many of you have completed both components, but quite a number of you have completed the online portion, but not the practical portion. The practical course will be most beneficial to you as a coach for the upcoming season. ![]()
Please register for the practical portion of your course (if you have not yet completed it) as soon as possible. This is done through your coachcentre.ca account. ![]()
If you have not yet completed the online portion of the course sent to you, please finish it ASAP so you have time to register for the practical portion.![]()
If you need a grassroots course, please email Brian at ks*********@gm***.com so you can get set up.![]()
If you do not know if you have been certified, check your coachcentre.ca account under certifications. If this fails, let Brian know and he will check the BC soccer coach database.![]()
Currently, we do not have sufficient numbers in the practical courses for them to be held, so please register ASAP.

It’s cool to see support for female athletes across the region and in sport!This photo says it all! It has been a milestone, record breaking year here at GTMHA for females in hockey. Whether they play on a mixed or all-female team, us here at GTMHA could not be more proud to host a total of 80 amazing young female athletes this season!![]()
It’s a year to celebrate for sure. This season for the first time ever we have hosted all-female teams in our younger divisions U7 and U9, this making up four teams which also include our U13 and U18 Wildcats hosted here in Trail of all females. On top of those all-female teams, we also have multiple other ladies that play on our rep and mixed house teams. All these young ladies have truly shown great ambition and love for the game, female strength, and true athleticism.![]()
There are also other Trail female players that are playing in other associations this season including the Castlegar U15 Wildcats, WK Crusaders, academies, collages and universities from all over. Some Trail native players have gone as far as playing around the world and some now even coach at the university level. GTMHA will always be proud to cheer them all on in all their successes. ![]()
We would like to take a moment and thank those that have worked so hard in the past, present, and future to keep the love of females in hockey alive not only here in Trail, but the West Kootenays! Seeing the growth in our little area, shows how much all the hard work can pay off. ![]()
And now... without further ado... may we present to you the females of GTMHA 2024-2025 ! Not all could make the photo yesterday, we missed their presence, but we always cheer them on just the same!! WTG Ladies!!!! ![]()

We always get lots of questions around field times. When planning the upcoming season we base it on previous seasons, but executing the plan depends on the volunteers that step up.

This season we are offering girls programming at all age groups!![]()
A few years ago KSYSA started piloting girls recreation programs in Trail and found great success with it. Last season, we formally started the U10 girls recreation league with great results (see photos). This year, we decided to expand the opportunity to all age groups. Proceeding with this opportunity is dependent on registration numbers and volunteer coaches.![]()
For the U6 category, as per Soccer Canada Grassroots Standards, there are no formal soccer games so the girls groups mean that the 'teams' will be formed as girls only and do their activities together at their home field - no travel.![]()
For the U8 category, there are options on how the season is set up. In our experience, the girls teams do not want to play the boys/co-ed teams, so the girls teams play each other. In Trail we were able to form 2 girls teams, and they played each other all season. It may have felt repetitive to the parents, but the girls were happy. If the children requested to play the boys/co-ed teams, that would be an option too. These field times are also at their home field - no travel.![]()
For U10 girls, it is registration, field and volunteer dependant. Last year the Rossland and Trail girls played together at Pople Park in Trail, BV had a team, and Castlegar had a roster that filled 2 teams! They practiced on their home field and played a couple of games away (within KSYSA).![]()
There is also a Mini Girls Soccer Day, scheduled for May 22 this season, where all the U8 and U10 girls groups come to Pople Park in Trail and play a bunch of mini games as a special event.![]()
When registering, parents can choose to register their daughter in either the Girls or Boys/Co-Ed program, and if your child changes their mind we can accommodate that.![]()
Our goal is to provide programs for all youth to have a sense of belonging, improve their skills, enjoy their time and thrive!![]()

The effort and support to kick off a U10 girls development team and the other work to support girls in soccer - keep it up!
I appreciated the dedication of coaches and managers. Kept the kids and parents engaged.
I wish we had an indoor facility for continuity of programming through out the year.
Inclusive - open to all!
Development coaching was great, kids did well with the games-based approach. Coaching was consistent, adaptable to kids needs, and provided lots of skill development.
I found the coaches included each child in the games. Every child should feel a part of the team and get to play.
