SUBURBAN FOOTBALL DISTRICT
SOCCER CLUBS UNITE – NEW DISTRICT AND TIER 1 CLUB FORMED
Suburban FC
It is with great excitement that Bedford Soccer Association, East Hants Soccer Association, Sackville United Soccer Association and Scotia Soccer Club announce the launch of a new amalgamated district and a new regional club fielding teams in the Nova Scotia Soccer League (Tier 1 and Senior A). The newly amalgamated region known as Suburban District represents over 4500 soccer players and covers a wide landscape including Fall River, Lower Sackville, East Hants, and Bedford. The new club, also part of the new district, will support Soccer Nova Scotia’s initiative for regionalized competition following the Canadian Soccer Association’s Long-Term Player Development model. Players from the four clubs in the district who are interested and capable of playing at the elite level will tryout for the regional club and teams.
Bedford Soccer Association, East Hants Soccer Association, Sackville United Soccer Association, and Scotia Soccer Club will continue to operate individually and maintain their own identity for mini, recreational and Tier 2 levels of play. The creation of Suburban FC will allow the four clubs to focus on the development of Tier 2 and Mini players improving their soccer experience and helping to develop a passion for the World’s greatest game.
