About Skills Centre
Every person involved in soccer in Canada deserves an enjoyable experience with the game, regardless of the role they play, their age, their level of experience or their ability. For young players, an enjoyable experience means that they have access to high-quality programs where they can have fun with their friends, learn new skills and play the game in an appropriate format.
Clubs play an important role in this, as they are the primary providers of the soccer programs where young players experience the game in Canada. Canada Soccer has created the Skills Centre Program to guide clubs towards best principles in player development by taking a nationally coordinated approach to developing young soccer players. Skills Centres provide a challenging, enjoyable environment for players to develop and nurture the skills required to succeed in the game of soccer.
Skills Centre Goals
- Keep players involved in the game for longer by providing an enjoyable experience
- Guidelines that ensure delivery of the best possible training environment
- Develop players by increasing opportunity and access to better training and competition

FDSA Launch Fundraising Campaign!
The Fredericton District Soccer Association is launching a new fundraising campaign!
The goal of this campaign is to raise funds to Grow the Game of soccer in the Fredericton area. We wish to continue to raise the level of programming we can provide, better train and prepare our coaches, improve our administration and communication. Our plan is to use the proceeds of this campaign to provide a better sporting experience for all our athletes and families, help to reduce barriers to participation and to increase participation in soccer as a whole... to grow the game of soccer in our community. We wish to continue to build a more cooperative, more inclusive and more inviting soccer community… and we need your assistance to do so!
This new fundraising campaign is a partnership with The Lotto Factory and will be a weekly Progressive 50/50 draw. For as little as $2 per week for a ticket, you will have the chance to win 50% of the accumulated pot that week. Only 1 ticket will be drawn each week. Be sure to play your registered ticket number each week because a progressive draw means that the weekly pot can either be won OR carried over to the following week’s draw if a number is drawn but was not played. Jackpots will continue to build each week until a paid ticket is drawn. The more tickets played, the bigger the jackpot gets, it’s that simple! You can play as many tickets as you like, it is up to you! Pay weekly or pre-pay your ticket(s) up to a full year in advance to ensure you don’t miss out.
Our Goal is to raise $20,000 for our club, while passing on more than $30,000 to draw winners!
The first draw will take place Friday, February 12th at 8pm. Please share with all your friends, family, inner and outer circles worldwide. This is not restricted to just FDSA members, anyone worldwide (except U.S) can contribute and is eligible to win!
