The Club has two major fundraising initiatives underway. First, we’re focused on building our future by completing the Paul Myers Athletic Centre — with real washrooms (no more porta-potties!) — and finishing the warm-up pitch that will bring our bubble facility vision to life for all members.

Second, we’re supporting our community by raising donations for the North Shore Christmas Bureau and the Harvest Project. For every $30 donation, you’ll receive a West Van FC scarf as a thank-you. It’s a win-win that spreads warmth on and off the field!

As many of you know, the re-turfing of Ambleside Fields D and E began in early July, and we have just been informed that Ambleside Fields D and E will not be available for use until October—several weeks after the start of the new season. The District of West Vancouver initially anticipated the fields would be ready in time for our preseason in August, but supply chain delays have significantly impacted the completion of the re-turfing work.

This is an unprecedented challenge for our club. Losing our primary fields for practices, games, and academy programs at the start of the season will require significant adjustments. That said, we are committed to ensuring our players remain active and our season moves forward. We are expecting our academy to begin in October.
