With more information than ever before, we know you’ll find the
answers to most of your questions on our website.
With the heatwave continuing across Southern Ontario it's great to see our players and families out at our community fields enjoying this incredible weather. Well done to our coaches and match officials in ensuring there are regular water breaks and that player safety is front of mind. We all know that summer will soon turn to fall and those early nights will bring with them cold weather and a longing for the summer again - it's the beauty of living in this great country!

The really positive response we've seen this summer to a safe return to play has also started to carry over into the Indoor season. With both Recreational and Competitive registrations NOW OPEN, we strongly encourage;

  • Families to get the kids registered as soon as possible as spots are filling up fast
  • Adult players spread the word that we're excited to offer both Women's and Men's Indoor Leagues for this Winter (enter as a team or individual), more info coming
  • Players looking for more can register for advanced programs in Skill Development, Goalkeeping and our Player Development Academy (by invite only)
  • Seniors, our Walking Soccer group are back up and running, preparing for a fresh Indoor season this September.
As always there is plenty of opportunity for everyone to get involved so reach out to us with any program questions.

Pickering FC is undergoing an extensive outreach program this fall to connect with members of our community that may not think of us as a place they fit in. You may recall we had fantastic success in 2017 with our In Motion program for seniors and in the same vein we're looking at other underrepresented community groups who we would like to speak with. If you feel you represent a part of our community that would benefit from connecting with us please contact our Program Coordinators Tammy and Laura. We'd love to start that conversation and have you involved in our exciting plans for the fall.
Make sure to Follow Us on social media for all club stories, updates, and program info!!!

OUTDOOR REC 2021

With a reconfiguration of the registration fees based on a 7 game season (half season) we did not calculate in the cost of player pictures. With the continuing changes in the Covid Climate we were uncertain if we would be able to have pictures taken. As such, we made the determination that rather than be in a position to do refunds pictures for over 1100 player that it was best to remove that line from the registration fee and avoid holding an event where at times we could have 200 plus people in one area at the same time. We hope that you understand as we also wanted to manage things in the best interests of our players and staff.
PFC would like to thank our U9 Boys GOLD Sponsor The Steam Mobile. 

The Steam Mobile provides professional and reliable Automotive detailing, Commercial & Residential disinfecting services! Check them out! We are so #PFCProud to have them as one of our GOLD sponsors for 2021!
