MISSION STATEMENT
As we look ahead to the FIFA World Cup 26, hosted on Canadian soil, we are reminded of the immense potential within our nation’s soccer community. Given the growth of our sport and the increasing accomplishments of our National Teams, Canadians often talk about opportunities for Canada to emerge as a top-flight global football country, and the legacy that will create.
The opportunity is here. Welcome to the Canada Soccer Foundation, where we unite a diverse nation through the beautiful game.
Our players reflect Canada’s rich tapestry of cultures, serving as role models who inspire passion and community support from coast to coast. As we approach the excitement of the 2026 World Cup, we aim to transform casual spectators into avid soccer fans, bringing the sport’s vibrant spirit to cities and towns across Canada.
Join us as we kick-start a movement that celebrates excellence and unity in Canadian soccer, harnessing our collective passion to build a bright future for the sport.
Make no mistake – our time is now.
