Saturday Soccer HOME

Posted Aug 8/25 - Saturday Aug 9th Soccer - Issues

Two issues, lost yellow soccer bib and parking Saturday Aug 9th

1) Someone picked up Darren's yellow soccer bib on Saturday August 2nd. If it was you let Bruce or Darren know. Thanks.

2) Parking is expected to be limited. Provincials are being held at SAP.

- There will be a lot of out of town visitors at Strathcona Athletic Park. Just trying to be courteous and thoughtful.

- Please use the secondary parking lot just west of the far end of our field, Field " G". This parking lot is within the confines of Strathcona Athletic Park but is accessed from a
seperate / different location.

Approximate address is:

300 Colwill Blvd, Sherwood Park

- Instead of turning into the main parking lot on the west side of Clover Bar Road at the intersection of Clover Bar Road and Fox Haven Drive, drive one soccer field length further north (or one soccer field length less south) on Clover Bar Road and turn west onto Colwill Blvd. A short distance on Colwill Blvd turn left into the parking lot.

AND Always a good idea to check if our field is OPEN or CLOSED or USER DISCRETION before you leave home for soccer.,

Posted Aug 1/25 - Tuesday evening time change

Starting August 5th our Tuesday soccer is from 6:30pm to 8:30pm.

Location remains unchanged, SAP "G".

And Tuesdays in September, time will be 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

Earlier sunsets get the credit.

Thus far we have had 23 out of 26 booking where the field was used. Not affected by rain.

18 bookings remain.

Posted Jul 19/25 - Saturday July 19

Sherwood Park, Cold, Damp and Miserable.

Doesnt appear that you will be able to stay dry, including your feet.

Pretty sure the field will be slippery and susceptible to damage.

I would give it a pass, sorry for the late notice.

See you tuesday, Bruce.

Posted Jun 13/25 - Rainouts and Air Quality

Rainouts. The County / Sherwood Park only closes the fields due to heavy rains. Their approach, which has been evolving the past couple of years, is to leave the decision to us.

- fields are either classified as OPEN,

USER DISCRETION,

CLOSED

- OPEN or CLOSED is self-explanatory.

- USER DISCRETION means if we won't damage the field by playing on it then we may play. Conversely, if damage is likely, we should not play.

advantage, if the fields are OPEN / USER DISCRETION and sun / temperature is not ideal - pretty good chance we will be closer to two teams then three.

Don't forget to check the following link shortly before you leave.
