Provincial and territorial competitions for the 2024 season

Across the 2023-24 and 2024 seasons, Canada Soccer’s Member Associations will host provincial and territorial championships across several age categories, with the (open) adult, U-17 and U-15 categories eligible for qualification to Canada Soccer’s 2024 Toyota National Championships.

As Canada Soccer’s largest national event featuring clubs from coast to coast, the Toyota 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 Toyota 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.

Here’s an overview of the 2023-24 and 2024 provincial and territorial qualifiers for the Toyota National Championships (along with the total number of clubs participating in each division).
