Canada Soccer has confirmed the 2024 rosters for the 16 amateur adult teams competing at this year’s Toyota National Championships in Surrey, British Columbia. In all, there are 299 registered players across the 16 teams participating in the men’s Challenge Trophy and women’s Jubilee Trophy competitions from 9 to 14 October at Newton Athletic Park.
Canada Soccer’s Toyota National Championships are hosted each October across six divisions in three venues: the men’s Challenge Trophy and women’s Jubilee Trophy (adult competitions) in Surrey, British Columbia; the U-17 Cup in Cape Breton for boys and girls; the U-15 Cup in Quinte West for boys and girls. Rosters for the 44 youth clubs were also announced this week in advance of the opening matches.
Earlier this year, the inaugural Player-Development Program Championship featured 28 teams across the PDP U-17 Cup and PDP U-15 Cup for boys and girls. Across the Futsal Canadian Championship, PDP Championship and Toyota National Championships, Canada Soccer’s national amateur competitions have featured a record 105 qualified teams in 2024.
This year marks the 100th edition of Canada Soccer’s national amateur competitions since they were first inaugurated in 1913 after the organisation’s establishment. Over the years, those competitions have featured different divisions and age levels, with the inaugural Dominion of Canada Football Championship switched to a strictly amateur competition in 1962. Since 2008, Canada Soccer’s national amateur competitions have been complemented by the Canadian Championship which today features men’s professional and semi-professional clubs from Major League Soccer, the Canadian Premier League and League1 Canada.
At all age levels, Canada Soccer’s national amateur competitions provide a meaningful soccer experience for host cities and participating teams, including the players, coaches, support staff, officials and volunteers.
