2019 News
Program Dates: Saturday April 20 – June 22, 2019 (no session April 22, May 18, 20). Please note the date was advertised as starting April 13th (we were going to miss Easter weekend this year ) however, in order to have the fields booked simultaneously we must start April 20. Therefore, the start date for the program is Saturday, April 20.
This year will be our 26th year offering Micro Footie to the Britannia Community! Saturday game days will take place at Empire Bowl, Britannia Oval & Garden Park. Practice weeknights will take place at our local fields, Garden Park, Robson Park and the Brit Oval. Playing soccer 2X/week, World Cup country kits, a team photo (yes, it is back!) are all included!
Remember, although the start date is Saturday April 20, we host a “Meet & Greet” session the week leading up to opening day (during your practice day and time the week of April 15 – April 18). This is an opportunity for players and Coaches to meet and enjoy their first practice!
Important note: All micro footie players should hear from their coaches between April 8-12.
Fun 2019 fact: All teams featured in Micro Footie 2019 are the same countries featured in the upcoming Woman’s World Cup in France.
New in 2019: In a proactive approach to balance out teams, ALL Advanced Boys (10-11yrs), Super Advanced Boys (12-13yrs) and Sr. Super Advanced Boys (14-15yrs) who have successfully registered for the program will need to attend a “Team Builder” session at the Britannia Oval on Sun March 3, 2019. It is important you attend this session as we will be making up teams during this time. We will be asking for help from those coaches who will be coaching these divisions. The schedule will be as follows, rain or shine:
9:30-11:00am MF registered Advanced Boys (10-11yrs)
11:15am-12:45pm MF registered Super Advanced Boys (12-13yrs)
1:00-2:00pm MF registered Sr Super Advanced Boys (14-15yrs)
Behind the Scenes: Britannia Community Centre will be taking on the administrative duties of the program in 2019 (registration, recruiting coaches, communications, game/tournament schedules, website, making teams).
Jason Kyle, founder of the program will be overseeing the day to day operation of the program (recruiting coaches, training coaches, staff, referees, equipment).
