About Our Association
2008-09-05
Welcome to the Humboldt and District Soccer Association!Welcome to the Humboldt and District Soccer Association! Our club supports year round soccer activities for fun and competition. The outdoor season, running through May and June every year has enjoyed tremendous growth as more and more kids and adults have found it a great activity. The focus is on FUN. Our house league is co-ed, score is not recorded, and every game is a “friendly”. We train our volunteer coaches to ensure that players learn as they play. Our referees are fully certified by the Canadian Soccer Association, which helps ensure consistency in the understanding of the “laws of the game”. We do our utmost to stay true to the international FIFA rules, so visiting players can fit right in.
Our indoor league runs from mid October through early March at St. Peter’s College gym. This program has proven to be very popular as well, since many players are too busy in the spring and summer.
Both indoor and outdoor seasons offer the opportunity for the more advanced players to travel to tournaments for serious competition. About half our league players will participate. The Hurricanes have enjoyed a proud history of championships right up to the Provincial titles in Division 2 (now renamed Division 3 by the SSA).
Children as young as 3 can join our fun leagues. Adults as old as, well, as old as you want can play. In fact the adults have recently seen a tremendous resurgence thanks in large measure to Humboldt’s strong economy that has brought us players from around the world.
Anyone who is new to town or just new to soccer can find out more by contacting any member of our club, or the City of Humboldt Leisure Services Department will help direct you.
Enjoy!
Miles E. Jorgenson, President
