answers to most of your questions on our website.

Dear Member, Stakeholder, Supporter,


It is with much sadness that we inform you of the passing of former Pickering Football Club member, Alexandra Maxwell.


An enthusiastic player with PFC from a young age, Alex went on to become a dedicated and compassionate pediatric nurse at the Hospital for Sick Children, where she worked tirelessly with her 7B family and cared for those with COVID-19 throughout the pandemic.


All of us at PFC are sending our deepest condolences to

Alexandra's family, friends, loved ones, and former teammates.


If you would like to read more about Alexandra's story, click here.

On a happier note, with the new and improved dome now complete, we are pleased to announce the launch of our Pickering Soccer Centre logo as part of the ongoing evolution of our communities brand.


Time to focus on the playoffs! #PFCProud

The good news continues with our L1R U19 Women's team who have clinched the East Division and finished in first place!


BIG congratulations to the team, Coach Peter Hogg, and all those involved this season.

Last but not least, the Canadian Women's National Team are off to a great start in the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup with their recent result against the Republic of Ireland, winning 2-1. Canada is now in second place right behind Nigeria on a total of 4 points.


The red and white are coming up against host nation Australia next in a must-win match on Monday, July 31st at 6:00AM. Be sure to cheer them on bright and early with a cup of coffee!
