Canada Soccer is now accepting proposals from Canadian communities to host the National Championships in 2026 and 2027. Hosted simultaneously in three communities each October, the National Championships provide hosts with the unique opportunity to showcase their community, engage with national and local partners, and contribute to the development of soccer across the nation.

Canadian communities are invited to submit their proposals this Spring with letters of interest due by 31 March 2025 and then bid documents due by 30 May 2025. The letter of interest should be emailed to competitions@canadasoccer.com.

As Canada Soccer’s largest national event featuring clubs from coast to coast, the National Championships have served as the nation’s primary amateur soccer competition for more than 100 years, with the men’s competition inaugurated in 1913, the youth competition inaugurated in 1966, and the women’s competition inaugurated in 1982. At all age levels, the National Championships provide a meaningful week-long soccer experience for host cities and participating teams, as well as the players, coaches, support staff, officials, and volunteers.
