CLUB/RECREATIONAL PROGRAM
The NDFC Spring program offers specialized training by our certified volunteer coaches in a positive, encouraging, and age-appropriate environment. Players will be focusing on developing both their individual technical skills along with their team skills that can be practiced during a game setting.
U10-U18 NDFC teams are part of the Cascadia League program for the following age groups. The Cascadia League is the league that coordinates game schedules for the season.

PLAYER REQUESTS:
Any requests for specific coaches or friends to be on the same team must be completed at the time of registration. When completing the registration, the request box appears after the waivers and questionnaire section labeled "SPECIAL REQUESTS". Requests will be reviewed; however, they cannot be guaranteed due to varying factors. The club will try and accommodate these requests where possible and in order of priority, so we highly recommend registering early to avoid disappointment.
Please note, not being placed with a requested friend or coach does not constitute a request for a refund.
VOLUNTEER TO COACH:
North Delta FC is a not for profit club that relies on volunteers to coach teams so that we can make our registration fees affordable for our membership. All of our teams are coached by volunteers.
NDFC is pleased to announce that a 10% discount on player registration fees will be given to coaches or assistant coaches who volunteer to coach for the Spring League - 2023. There is a limit of 2 coaches per team who can obtain a discount. In order for coaches to receive the discount, they must commit to coaching a team for the duration of the Spring Season. Knowledge of the game of soccer does not have to be extensive. Our most important requirement for volunteer Coaches is to have the ability to have fun, to have a positive attitude with the children, and to ensure fair play amongst all players. Our technical staff coaches will be on the field weekly to assist all Coaches throughout the season.
To receive your coaches discount, please email your Age Group Coordinator.
