With more information than ever before, we know you’ll find the

answers to most of your questions on our website.

Dear Member, Stakeholder, Supporter,

We want to wish all of our players currently under the pressure of school exams the best of luck. Our coaching staff are well aware of the needs of our young athletes at this time of year with the challenge of year-end exams, prom and graduation events. Players are encouraged to speak with staff about any additional commitments during this time as we know everyone will be focused on a strong summer of soccer once the final school bell rings for the year.


For our younger families, don't forget the PFC Summer Camp is available for the month of July and first two weeks of August. Led by our popular grassroots leader, Coach Kyra, we know the kids will have a lot of fun down at the Kinsmen Field Complex so please book now to avoid disappointment.


Finally, the City found itself at the centre of a sad news story this week with the accident that occurred on the 401.Thanks to everyone for their patience and understanding either getting to practice/games or for cancellations where necessary. With summer upon us, the streets will be busier than ever so please take care getting to where you need to be and especially around our soccer fields and parks.


REMINDER If you would like to be part of the 40th Anniversary Committee or a sub-committee to support a specific event, we'd love to hear from you. Click the Application Form here to confirm your interest and answer four quick questions!

Finally, with summer soccer now in full swing, consider this a friendly, but IMPORTANT REMINDER to all parents, caregivers, players:


By-law officers will be patrolling to enforce/ticket prohibited parking.


Please be respectful of community residents in the neighbourhood and ALWAYS leave handicapped parking spaces for those in need. 


Help keep everyone safe by only parking in designated areas!

Applications are now being accepted for the All Abilities Lucas MacIsaac Memorial Volunteer Scholarship

The Pickering Football Club’s All Abilities Lucas MacIsaac Memorial Volunteer Scholarship has been created so that we may recognize those young men and women volunteering with our All Abilities program, who exemplify the “spirit” of Lucas MacIssac. 


Lucas was a dedicated Volunteer with the All Abilities Program travelling to and from our Pickering Football Club every Saturday morning from Campbellville, Ontario. His passion for soccer was evident as he guided our young athletes, leading them in fitness, soccer skills and games. In addition to volunteering with our All Abilities Program, he also jumped into training with our Blind Soccer program and teammates from the Canada Soccer Para Team. Sadly, Lucas passed away on Sunday, July 19, 2020, after an 8-year battle with cancer.
