Registration for our 2023 Summer Outdoor Season is now closed, and we had a record number of registrants!

If you made it into the league, congratulations, we’re so excited to see you on the field this summer. To confirm your spot, please make sure to e-transfer your registration fee ($175 fee + $75 jersey deposit = $250) to treasurer@outforkicks.ca using password Soccer by Wednesday, March 15th. Or you may bring a cheque to the Payment Party at Fountainhead Pub, Wednesday, March 15th.

If you’re on our waitlist, hang tight! We will contact you shortly after our Payment Party if a spot opens up for you.

The 44th Annual Pride Parade is back on and we want you to be a part of it!

This year, Out for Kicks will have a float in the parade and we are calling for members to come participate to help have the best float yet.

What does this look like? This year will include:
- An OFK Pride Float – Theme is Lucid Dreams
- Cute outfits and accessories (stay tuned)
- Official Choreographed Dance to Lucid by Rina Sawayama prepared by the wonderful Tyler Barr!
- Snacks and refreshments to keep you fed and hydrated throughout the sunny day.
Note: You can also come the day-of the parade and walk with the float (e.g. carry the banner, dribble a soccer ball, etc.). In the past, we’ve heard that helping set-up and learning the dance has always been a fun way to spend the day.
