🗓️ SPRING TRAINING & GAME SCHEDULE​

TRAINING SCHEDULES

  • Boys train Mondays and/or Wednesdays; Girls train Tuesdays and/or Thursdays. 

  • Training times are confirmed once the City of Surrey issues field permits and teams are finalized. Therefore, we do not advertise training times in advance as they could change, disrupting family schedules.

  • Coastal FC will share the training schedule with coaches and managers 1-2 weeks before the Spring Season.

  • Coaches and managers will share the training times with their teams and parents.

  • Schedules may change depending on the number of teams and the availability of volunteer coaches.

GAME SCHEDULES

  • Boys' games are held on Saturdays, and Girls' games on Sundays.

  • Game times are subject to City of Surrey field permits, Cascadia scheduling, inter-house play, and other program variables and will be confirmed once all factors are in place.​

  • Once field permits are received from the City of Surrey, schedules are built around allocated fields, age groups, program level requirements, player safety, and development goals to ensure a plan that works for the entire club.

  • Coastal FC will send the weekly game schedule to team coaches and managers by Wednesday of each game weekend.

  • Schedules will be finalized as quickly as possible.

  • Coaches and managers will share the game times with their teams and parents.

Due to these factors, we are unable to confirm specific training and game times until 1-2 weeks before the Fall season. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we work hard to build the best possible schedule for our members.
