Royal Gardens Soccer
Edmonton Minor Soccer Association (EMSA) runs a club and community indoor and outdoor program through each city zone (SE, SW, NE NW).
As RGCL has not had its own soccer director for many years, we are grateful to the Greenfield Community League for allowing our families to register through their community.
Soccer runs for ages 5 to 18. Registration for outdoor soccer begins in February of each year with a 'usual' season running in May/June/July. Royal Gardens has a small but usual volume of soccer registrants each year. For information or questions contact soccerinfo@greenfieldcommunityleague.com.
The EMSA program is affiliated with the Alberta Soccer Association, Canadian Soccer Association and FIFA.
Soccer Coordinator
If you are interested in this important role, or helping with the soccer program in any way, please contact soccerinfo@greenfieldcommunityleague.com.
The role of the Soccer Coordinator is to work within the Southgate District (communities of Greenfield, Royal Gardens, Empire Park, Duggan, and Aspen Gardens) to advertise the program, receive registrations and make decisions about their community, work to form teams and approve transfer requests of players, recruit team officials, support teams through the season, optimize volunteers, facilitate equipment and uniforms. Greenfield has a small committee (coordinator, two equipment and one uniform volunteer) to run the program. Monthly SWEMSA board meetings are held, as well as a SWEMSA annual planning session, a SWEMSA annual general meeting and an EMSA annual meeting. SWEMSA supports the communities to run a consistent program through the SW zone and we work together to build teams.
