The league

Whitehorse Recreational Co-ed Soccer is a non-competitive recreational league for adults (18 and over). Whether you join for outdoor or indoor, you'll meet many people, get lots of exercise, and have loads of fun. We typically put on one social event each season as well. Plus, you get a glamorous T-shirt for your registration fee. The outdoor Co-ed season starts in May, the indoor season in October.

positive recreational atmosphere - equal time - no contact or rough play
engineered teams - team shirt with logo
no fitness or experience necessary - web and e-mail administration - partial indoor season rates

Refunds / Fee Adjustments

The league is not able to refund players who after registering become unable to play due to an injury, a change in their work schedule, an unplanned move from the Territory, a new love in their life, a spouse complaining that they’re not spending enough time at home…well, you get the idea. Sorry, but the league is now so large that, because it’s administered by volunteers, we need things to be standardized. That includes there being one schedule of fees for everyone.

Related to this, the league cannot offer an individualized fee to any player. For example, if you can't play on a certain night each week, well that’s the way it goes. You don’t get to pay less than the regular fee.

Nights of Play Subject to Change

By the beginning of each season, the league is able to tell players what the nights of play are. However, these are subject to change. It doesn’t usually happen during the outdoor season, except on an occasional basis (we get bumped for tournaments or other special events from time to time). During the indoor season it’s a small possibility because the gyms at the Canada Games Centre are being used every night of the week and we’re vying with other groups for good time slots. We do the best we can but can’t make any guarantees.

Social Events

To date the league has had twenty-six successful social events. They have ranged from an afternoon of curling, trivia games, food and drinks at the Whitehorse Curling Club (December 2011) to a pizza and mass Pictionary house party (March 2004) to a beach volleyball barbecue (August 2001).

Other events in recent years have tended toward nachos and drinks on the patio of Sanchez Cantina or pizza and appies and beer at a restaurant or pub. Your ideas and enthusiasm are needed!

Anyone interested in organizing social events, or with suggestions, should speak to a member of the executive. We welcome ideas and assistance!
