Competitive Program |
From U13 our competitive teams compete in regional or district leagues within south-eastern Ontario. Regional soccer is the highest level of youth soccer in Ontario below OPDL. Kingston United’s regional teams compete in the Eastern Ontario Soccer League (EOSL) which is mainly comprised of teams from Ottawa and Kingston. District soccer provides a platform for players to compete locally within the Southern Ontario Soccer Association (SOSA). The league is comprised of teams based within the SOSA district (Belleville – Kingston – Brockville). Both regional and district teams train twice a week with one game-night per week during the summer season.
NEW this 2023 season: Kingston United SC will be entering a team into the Ottawa Carleton Soccer League(OCSL). Our women's team will be entering in WC2. |
Development Program |
Our development program runs from U8-U12 playing in a variety of formats as players progress through the age groups. Our U8/9 teams do not play in a league but play within interclub games programs throughout the year and some exhibition games and festivals in the summer. Our U10-U12 teams compete in the SOSA leagues which do not publish scores or standings and are focused on player development. As a club we put an emphasis on skill development and fostering a lifelong love for the game, whatever level they go on to compete at. |
The KU Development Centre is the new hub of youth soccer development in the Kingston area this winter.
