About us
Who we are
North Shore Girls Soccer Club is one of the oldest and largest female-centered not-for-profit community soccer clubs in Canada. For 40 years we have had a dedicated team of coaches, staff, and volunteers who are passionate about soccer, and the long-term positive impact of sport. We are committed to the growth and development of girls and women in our community, and to continuing the soccer legacy on the North Shore.
NSGSC offers soccer league and development programs for players of all ages and abilities from pre-school (age 3) through to our Women's 18+ program, the North Shore's only Adult Indoor League, and our popular Soccer4Everyone for youth with physical challenges.

It is a pathway to growth, community & opportunity.
