Further to previous emails and notifications, together with the cancellation of both the 2020 and 2021 REP Outdoor Seasons, "2020 REP Registration Fees” previously paid are still available for refund to those requesting them, or in the alternative and at your written request, may be carried over and applied towards the 2022 season.

As many opted to play House League this past summer, the difference between the 2021 House League Registration Fees and your previously "held on account" funds also remains available for refund to those requesting them, or in the alternative and at your written request, may also be carried over and applied towards the 2022 season.

We ask that you please advise the Club as to your preference with respect to any of the above through email to the Club at qwsc@bellnet.ca . 

Please note that if requesting a refund, you must confirm the email account used when the initial registration was paid, as this will be the email account to which your refund will be sent. All refunds will be issued via e-transfer.

Wolverine coaching positions are available for the OPEN teams below. Please apply ASAP.

If we cannot find coaches for the OPEN teams then they may not run. Please consider coaching. 

REP TRYOUTS ARE POSTED BELOW

PDF TRYOUT FORM

Based on the Province of Ontario's recent announcement we will be able to commence the 2021 season once the province enters Stage 2, which we anticipate and hope to be around July 5th, all subject to government and health board protocols that may be further implemented.  In order to prep for the upcoming season please note the following:

1) The Registration Platform will be closed at the end of day on June 18, 2021, in order to determine and analyze Divisional registration numbers in order to finalize scheduling.

2) Please note that "Game Nights" cannot be confirmed at this point in time.  We await the required protocols currently being established and implemented by the City of Quinte West with respect to Centennial Park.

3) Given current registration numbers, it has been decided that for the 2021 season (and this season only) that the U16/U17/U18 age group will play 7v7 on our 3/4 sized fields. We hope that this will be an enjoyable alternative and at the same time allow those who have registered in this age demographic to be able to play this season.

SEE LINK BELOW!!

Notes to Registrants:

1) "All" participants must initially register, in your appropriate age group, on this "Club" platform.  This registration will entitle all to a spot in House League.  At this point SOSA Rep leagues are not moving forward but should the District move forward therewith an additional registration adjustment platform will be created.

2) To those who deferred their 2020 Registration Fees to 2021.  You are still required to register on the 2021 platform, but please mark payment method as "Offline" and notify the Club by email once registered so that we may carry forward your funds.

3) Furthermore, with the office currently "closed to the public" due to the pandemic, we ask that "Offline" payments be made via e-transfer to qwsc@bellnet.ca with the password soccer.  We thank you in advance.

Return to Play protocols, as mandated by Ontario Soccer, are being finalized.  Please note that modified game structures may be implemented in certain age groups depending on registration numbers and government/health board/municipality protocols in place at said time. 

Also, until all required protocols are established and implemented "divisional game nights" cannot be confirmed at this time.

Please watch this page (our website) for further updates.

Thank you  for your patience in this matter,

Stay safe,

Please be advised that as we did not receive sufficient pre-registrations in order to achieve a quorum, we must postpone our 2020 Virtual AGM, previously scheduled for December 15, 2020, until further notice.

We note for the record that approximately 675 emails were sent out through our Registration platforms to the entire registered membership advising them of the AGM, as well as notice being posted on our website.

Moving forward, the hope is to re-schedule early in the new year.

Notwithstanding the postponement of this AGM, please note that all incumbents of the four (4) positions scheduled to be up for election have notified the Club of their intent to stand, and will continue onward serving the Club until such time as they are either confirmed, or opposed at the re-scheduled 2020 AGM.  These positions are:

Head Coach – Steve Whitehead – Standing

Rep Liaison – Jeff Armstrong – Standing

Tournament Convenor – Spencer Hutchison – Standing

Treasurer – Steve Thomas - Standing

Please stay safe, and all the best for the upcoming holiday season.

Yours truly,

In their Autumn (November/December) 2020 issue, Total Sport Quinte has named their latest Athlete of the Month. Steve Whitehead is our Club Head Coach and Goalkeeper Coach and has worked with the Loyalist College Lancers for 15 years, as head coach for 7 years and assisting for 8.  Congratulations Steve!!!!

You can read more on this story on the Total Sports Quinte website.

QWSC is working towards finalizing its return to play protocols (RTP) to be effective the first of the new year.

These protocols, together with the completion of the required Risk Assessments and the confirming of the Club’s Emergency Lead, will allow soccer programs to re-commence.

This will subsequently allow the Club to commence indoor programs together with allowing Rep teams to perform winter training (subject to availability of facilities), and to allow Rep teams to move forward with their scheduling of tryouts for the 2021 season.

We remind all that this initiative will be subject to an Ontario Soccer registration process and to all government and municipal restrictions that may be in place at the time. 

Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic the office is “Closed to the Public”, however every attempt is being made to continue business as usual behind the scenes and remotely.  Please feel free to contact the office either by phone at 613-965-6283 or by email at qwsc@bellnet.ca.

Stay safe,

QWSC reminds all members that as the 2020 QWSC Outdoor season has been cancelled, QWSC, in following with Ontario Soccer and SOSA District guidelines/protocols, does not permit or consent to any official soccer related activity or training at this time.  Anyone participating in such activity needs to understand that they are doing so with no support from, no affiliation with, and with no available liability against, the Quinte West Soccer Club.

Stay safe and healthy.

Please be advised that as of this date

Quinte West Soccer Club has cancelled all 2020 QWSC outdoor seasons due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

This decision means that QWSC House League and QWSC Wolverines REP teams will not have an “outdoor” season in 2020.  It is further noted that the effects of this decision shall be re-visited should SOSA or the CSL return to play at a later date.

Supporting the decision to cancel the season, QWSC referred to the rigorous risk assessment process in the protocol and the vulnerability of volunteer directors, coaches and managers and clubs given the lack of liability insurance for pandemics. Additionally, the decision was made because the health and safety of the soccer community could not be guaranteed.

We know how much hard work everyone put into planning and preparing for the 2020 outdoor season and on behalf of the club, we would like to thank each of you, in all your capacities, for volunteering with QWSC. To our players, we understand your disappointment and sadness with this decision. Over the winter, you put a lot of work into preparing for an outdoor season that would have been amazing for all QWSC teams.

We want everyone to understand and be assured that their health and well-being is our paramount concern. QWSC is hopeful that indoor soccer, skills and drills programs, and training will return in late 2020 or early 2021. QWSC hopes to see everyone back for the indoor or for the 2021 season!

“Registration Fee” Refunds will be available to all those requesting them or you may choose to apply your payment as a credit towards the 2021 outdoor season.

Notwithstanding the above, Rep members shall have one of two options with respect to their 2020 “Registration Fees” paid, being 1) leave their fees with the Club as an on account for 2021, which in turn shall guarantee their spot on their respective team for 2021, or 2) request a full “Registration Fee” refund, which on the payment of the refund is an acknowledgment that the player has forfeited their place on said 2021 team. No refunds will be given for uniforms or equipment purchased.

We ask that you advise us as to your preference through email to the Club at qwsc@bellnet.ca and if choosing a refund to therein confirm the email account to which you request your refund be sent.

Please note that all refunds will be issued via etransfer.

We ask all members for their patience as we prepare refunds for those requesting them.

Stay safe and healthy,

Quinte West Soccer Club
