Good afternoon club administrators and technical directors,
After reviewing the COVID-19 restrictions, CMSA has made a correction to our proposed start date for the winter portion of the 2020-2021 Indoor Season. The league will restart on Jan. 13, 2021... This is due to the mandated closure of facilities until Jan. 13, 2021.
The schedule for the winter portion of the season is now live on calgaryminorsoccer.com. The schedule has been adjusted to reflect the shortened season and to accommodate as many games as possible within the timeframe. Teams may be scheduled to play back-to-back days and the U7-U8 leagues have been extended until March 7, 2021.
CMSA will communicate with you accordingly should government measures restrict the season any further.
From the staff at CMSA, we hope you have a wonderful holiday season and we look forward to getting back to the soccer field in the new year.
Thank you, CMSA

This news has created an excitement in the sports community and Calgary Minor Soccer Association is elated at GOA’s decision to place sports in Stage 2 of the Relaunch Strategy. See the attached document for more information on Stage 2’s Return to Sport, Physical Activity and Recreation Guidelines, or visit alberta.ca.

As we continue to digest this information and communicate with Alberta Soccer Association (ASA), we will provide you with updates on the resumption of competition activity. As previously discussed with you, CMSA has a quickstart program ready to implement and we will connect with the Technical Directors on this in the coming days.
A few additional reminders:
We look forward to connecting with you tomorrow evening during the ASA Return-to-Soccer call.
