League information
Spring
League starts April 25, 2022. There are 8 scheduled games
in spring league with no games played May long weekend, May 21-23
If you are going to register a team for Spring
2022 you must make sure you are going to have enough players to field a team
for the 8 games that your team will be scheduled to play. We do not reschedule games in our spring league, but default rules
still apply. Please see schedule of fines for default info.
Games are scheduled Monday to Friday. New and
existing Teams must obtain a field between Monday and Friday evening after 7pm.
Latest start time is 9pm
We
have Divisions 1 through 4, Premier, Selects and Masters and possibly an over
40’s division (Classics) if we get enough interest in
the Spring League. If your team is interested in playing over 40’s please email
me and put notes in the team registration section so I can track how many we
have. We would need 4 teams to put the
division together.
Masters - Teams that played
in the Masters Division 1 and the top 8 teams in Masters div 2 are asked to go
into the open divisions for spring this year as the Masters spring division
that is offered is made up of Masters division 3 and 4, we want to keep the
competition in that division fair. Should I receive enough interest in a Masters
Spring division for Masters Division 1 and the top 8 teams in Masters Division
2 and the travel time for week day games is reasonable for teams we can look at
adding that division. Again put your notes about wishes in the notes section of
your team registration

In Memory of...
Roy Nosella and Bob Allen
Roy Nosella
MWSL Referee and Mentor
VMSL Board member
BC Soccer AC Sanford & Life Member
National Club Champion Player
Columbus FC
While he was an exceptional baseball player, including a
two-year stint playing in the Minor Leagues, Roy Nosella also had a passion for
soccer. After a successful playing career, which included lifting the Challenge
Cup as Canada’s Men’s National Amateur Soccer Champions in 1964 with Columbus
FC, Roy turned his attention to giving back to the sports that had given him so
much. Roy sat on the Board of Directors for both BC Soccer and the VMSL for
seven years. However, his longest tenured position was a 43-year stint serving
on the Vancouver Athletic Commission.
Roy was also a valued refereed in the Metro Women’s Soccer
League, where he instituted a mentorship program to help develop more local
referees. For his lifetime of dedication and exceptional service to soccer in
the Province, Roy was honored with BC Soccer’s prestigious AC Sanford Award.
Additionally, Roy was inducted into the Burnaby Sport Hall of Fame in the
Builders category in 2014.
Bob Allen
VMSL Board member
Valued MWSL Referee
BC Soccer AC Sanford & Life Member
VMSL-NASL-FIFA Referee
National Club Champion Player
Firefighters FC
Robert “Bob” Allen was a pioneer in the British Columbia
soccer landscape. During his playing days, Bob suited up for the storied
Vancouver Firefighters Football Club. Bob was a member of the Firefighters side
that were Pacific Coast League Champions and Canadian National Amateur
Champions in 1965. That season culminated with Vancouver Firefighters defeating
San Francisco to claim the John F. Kennedy Cup, played in Los Angeles. It is
not primarily his playing career, though, for which Bob will be remembered. Bob
Allen was one of Canada’s foremost soccer referees. He was appointed to the
Canadian National Referee List in 1977 and was a member of the FIFA International
Referee list from 1982-1987. His career highlights include being an assistant
referee for the 1982 NASL Soccer Bowl in San Diego, being named BC Athlete’s of
the Year “Official of the Year” and refereeing at the Canada Games in St. John,
New Brunswick in 1985, being honoured with Canada Soccer’s Ray Morgan Award for
refereeing and refereeing at the FIFA/CONCACAF Championship in Trinidad and
Tobago, assistant refereeing at the U16 World Cup hosted by Canada in 1987 and
taking charge of the National Men’s Amateur Challenge Cup Final in 1988.
