The North Shore Thirty Something Women's Soccer League

Yes, but there are no restrictions on the upper age bracket!  Our membership includes players in their thirties, forties, fifties, and beyond.  It is never too late!

You are eligible to join our league if you are turning 30 anytime during your first season, or thereafter.

Proof of age is required to register.

Yes...but the North Shore is broadly defined!  You must reside in one of four districts:  North Vancouver District, North Vancouver City, West Vancouver, or Squamish.  Residents of the corridor between West Vancouver and Squamish are also eligible to join.  Proof of residency is required to register.

There are two seasons of play...Fall and Spring.  

Fall season begins in early September, and runs until early March.  Games are once a week, and are usually played on Sunday mornings at 9:30am on the North Shore. 

Twice during the season North Shore based teams travel to Squamish for a noon game, once in the early Fall, and once after January 1st.

Spring season begins in late April or early May, and runs until July.  Games are played either on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday evenings at 8pm, or Sunday mornings between 8am and noon.  Almost all games are on the North Shore, with the possible addition of a game or two in Burnaby.

There are 18 teams in the league, and they each have their own practice schedule.  Typically during the Fall season, teams practice once a week, on a weekday evening.  Practice field assignments are usually Monday through Friday, from 8:30-10pm, on an all-weather North Shore field.

Most teams opt not to practice during the Spring season.

No!  Our membership includes a broad spectrum of skill levels, from those with absolutely no experience, to those who have played soccer for many years.  The common denominator is a desire for a challenging athletic experience, with the emphasis on fun!  Our philosophy is to provide fun, fitness, and friendship to female soccer enthusiasts on the North Shore.

The wait time varies greatly, season to season, and even month to month.  It can range from no wait whatsoever (receiving an immediate placement upon application), to a wait period of several months.  It is important to complete the New Player Application to Join the league, and submit it as soon as possible.  You will then be contacted by the team 'Assignment Coordinator' with an estimate of current wait times, if any.

You will need shin pads, and cleats ( for grass) or turf boots (for artificial turf).  Uniforms are available from your assigned team.

You will be assigned to a team based on available space.  In other words, when your name comes to the top of the wait list (if any), you will be assigned to the next team that requests an additional player.
