The Canada Soccer Grassroots Standards and our philosophy of “The Alchemy of Individual Growth” are fundamentally aligned in their commitment to creating an optimal learning environment for young soccer players.

As a Canada Soccer Certified Quality Soccer Provider, SCSA implements these national standards that prioritizes the individual journey of every young player.

Long-Term Player Development (LTPD) over Immediate Comparison: The Canada Soccer Grassroots Standards are built upon the principles of Long-term Athlete Development. This matches SCSA’s stance that comparing 8-13 year old children against one another benefits no one and can actually hamper the future success of both late and early bloomers.

The Power of a Growth Mindset: Both frameworks advocate for a shift in how success is measured. Instead of focusing on being better than a teammate or opponent, the focus is placed on a growth mindset where the only goal is to be better today than yesterday.

Empowerment Through Achievable Goals: The new grassroots guidelines aim to provide the best possible learning environment. SCSA achieves this by giving young players small, achievable goals that allow their skills and confidence to grow organically without the “burden” of external pressure.

By integrating these national standards with the “Alchemy” philosophy, it’s our hope and belief we will prepare all our soccer players for long-term success rather than short-term results.

At St. Charles Soccer Association we firmly believe it is our task to provide all the pathways possible, and then allow players (with their parents help) to follow the journey they choose throughout their youth soccer years.

For some it can start in mini-soccer, some will start this year in Grassroots and others may start in Outdoor Recreational for SCSA. Players may start in developmental soccer with SC Force- wherever the pathway begins, we will do whatever we can to support you on the journey you choose to take.

Everyone’s youth soccer journey is a different one. We are asking all our St. Charles Mini Program, SCSA Recreational and SC Force players to share their photos and let the journey tell the story !!

Send us a picture of you in 2016 (baby picture is ok) and a picture of you in your soccer gear this year in 2026, we will share them all on our Instagram story everyday and when the competition closes-draw a random winner from the different entries. The lucky winner gets their hands on an official Lego World Cup !!!

*competition only open to SCSA recreational players, St. Charles Mini players and SC Force players. An entry submission provides us with your permission to share the pictures on our instagram stories and page*

Good luck to everyone, we will draw a winner in 10 days time on the 23rd March ⚽️🏆

Grassroots Programming is now open for registration!!

There will be 4 Programming Blocks and at 2 different Programming Levels. Block 1 will occur during May and June, Block 2 will occur during August and September, Block 3 will be from Mid-October to Mid-December, and Block 4 will in February and March.

We will be running Station-Based Training and following the Grassroots Standards and established Match Day Format. Match Day Rosters will change week-to-week to aid in the development of the players and encourage growth.

Training Frequency is determined by the Level that a player has registered for - Grassroots Level 1 players will train once a week, while Grassroots Level 2 players will train twice a week.

We realize the introduction of Grassroots soccer to Winnipeg is a new concept, but our club will be committing the resources required to provide a fun environment for learning. Our qualified Technical Staff will be making sure all our players get the very best start they can on their soccer pathway ⚽️💙💛

Please contact us with any questions you may have, our dedicated Club Coordinator will be happy to help you in joining St. Charles Soccer Association.

Outdoor Soccer Registration is now open!!

We are so excited that the 2026 Outdoor Rec Season starts in May! We are really looking forward to what it means - providing teams for players to make friends, grow community, foster skill development, and, most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Our recreational teams play the full WYSA season. In addition SCSA uses a portion of the registration fee to enter all our SCSA Outdoor Recreational teams into the WYSA Boston Pizza Tournament. This will provide extra games for all players and the opportunity to participate in the annual WYSA event without an additional cost to our families.

In previous years, many recreational players from SCSA have had the opportunity to guest play for SC Force at both the developmental and Premier levels. This unique opportunity will once again be available to all players registered with SCSA for the Outdoor recreational season!

Interested in playing with SCSA? We invite you to register here:
