Dear Members, Stakeholder, Supporter,
If there was ever a time to reflect on the importance of our sport to build character, make friendships and teach life lessons then that time is now.
Many of us will have felt unsure, isolated or scared during the past 18 months and for some of us those feelings may still exist. Knowing that some day we can get back on the field to train, to play and to compete has kept us going and for those players/coaches/match officials that really want to be here we can see it in their faces, hear it in their voices and feel it in the energy they bring to the field. Our sport is built on those positive experiences and the memories they create. This week we were reminded of how precious those moments can be as we said goodbye to Jade De Castro, a shining star with our 2005 girls program. Messages from players, families, and clubs across Ontario have been shared with us via social media and we hope that brings comfort to Jade's family.

Tomorrow morning at 9:45am we will share in the celebration of another young life taken too soon. The dedication of a maple tree at the east side of the Pickering Soccer Centre will memorialize the passion, dedication and friendship that Lucas MacIsaac shared with the Club and specifically our All Abilities program. The tree was Lucas' favourite type and we look forward to seeing it grow for many years to come. Guests are welcome to attend and here from his friends and family. If you would like to know more please email Tammy. |

PFC would like to say a big thank you to Ben Piemontese, Branch manager at the Amberlea Shopping Centre branch of TD Canada Trust. Ben is a big soccer fan and really values the role sport organizations such as PFC can play in the community. Ben presented a cheque to the Club that will go to support players in need. |

PFC Facility Staff will be positioned in the lobby to check everyone in, subject to their vaccine requirements. PFC will not accept any abuse of staff or volunteers as we all try to navigate this difficult time. Please have patience and come prepared.

Pickering’s City Centre is undergoing a bold transformation and the City of Pickering invites residents, business, and stakeholders to share their thoughts on the proposed spaces and user experience.
Inspired by world-renowned public spaces, the project will see an exciting array of new, state-of-the-art municipal facilities, including a Performing Arts Centre, a combined Seniors & Youth Centre, and a relocated and expanded Central Library, surrounded by a vibrant and pedestrian-friendly public square.
From now until September, members of the public can register online and share their thoughts on the features, functionalities, and user experience of one or more of the proposed facilities.
