Unlocking Opportunities: Our Focus Areas
The Canada Soccer Legacy Fund is designed to elevate three critical pillars of soccer development:
1. Removing Barriers to Entry: We recognize that barriers can hinder the full potential of soccer's impact. Through our Legacy Fund, we are dedicated to creating programming that specifically addresses the needs of underrepresented and marginalized groups. By offering inclusive opportunities and fostering an environment of belonging, we aim to open doors and break down barriers, ensuring every Canadian can access our sport.
2.Enhancing Development for Leaders: Coaches, referees, and emerging leaders are the backbone of our sport. The Legacy Fund recognizes the importance of their roles and aims to enhance their opportunities for growth and education. By empowering coaches and referees with advanced training and resources and supporting emerging leaders in their pursuit of soccer-related careers, we ensure that our sport remains vibrant and inspiring.
3.Supporting Youth National Team Programs: Our youth are the future of Canadian soccer, and the Legacy Fund is committed to nurturing their growth. We will direct resources towards our Youth National Team programs, providing them with the experiences, coaching, and environments needed to thrive internationally. By investing in our youth, we're investing in the legacy of Canadian soccer excellence.
