Winter access to indoor sport and recreation space is a challenge across our region — not only for soccer, but for many other sports, for families, and for anyone at any age who wants to stay active.
KSYSA is exploring the feasibility of a year-round, multi-sport facility, and we want to understand the needs, priorities, and hopes of our members and the broader community.
MINI
Our Spring Recreational mini program is divided into Beaver Valley (U6 - U10), Castlegar (U4 - U11), Rossland (U5 - U11) and Trail (U5 - U11) and provides players an opportunity to develop skills and have fun. The intent is to introduce fundamental movement skills and soccer skills at developmentally appropriate ages.
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). Programs are divided by location with U4/5/6/7/8/9 playing at their home field and U10/11 practicing and playing at home and away fields within BV, Castlegar, Rossland and Trail.
YOUTH
Our Spring Recreational youth program is divided into U12 - U18 divisions and provides players an opportunity to develop skills and have fun.
The program is divided based on registration and coach availability and play happens within BV, Castlegar, Rossland and Trail.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 U9 - U18 players who want to extend their season and play in tournaments. The Spring program runs April to July and the Fall Program runs August to October.
U9- U11
The U9 - U11 age categories are development programs that introduce players to a more committed environment. The season is longer and teams attend tournaments.
U12/13
U12/13 divisions progress teams in game play and include an additional tournament. U13 may be tiered depending on registration numbers and coach availability.
U14+
U14+ age categories may be tiered teams that play to potentially compete at the Provincials. The season is longer and team attend local and away tournaments.
Our Winter Indoor program is a recreational program that provides U9 - U18 players an opportunity to develop skills and have fun. Our winter program runs January to March. Players can join 1-2 days per week in Trail and Castlegar.

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.
