In The News

We are petitioning the Madawaska Valley for allocation of a field suitable for community soccer. Please consider signing for STAGE1 below. Our vision is a multi-stage project.

STAGE 1: a field suitable for outdoor soccer with lighting and irrigation.

STAGE 2: the building of a multi-sport facility (pickle ball, badminton, squash, basketball, climbing wall) with walking/jogging track and features to facilitate senior health and living.

STAGE 3: building expansion with a swimming pool that allows for year-round activities, including indoor kayak development and indoor green common space with a health food juice bar.

This effort will require: organization (core + volunteers),  donation appeals, Trillium Grants, Community Sport and Infrastructure Funds, persistence and clear vision.

Personally I know two people who have successfully done this — Petrie Island Canoe Club in Ottawa area and the Altona Soccer Park in Saskatchewan. I know the chief engineer for Steelway, a top-tier company in Aylmer, Ontario that build exactly these types of facilities at all price-points. So that’s a start.

Please sign this petition (STAGE 1) if you are a player or a supporter of not just local soccer but the vision to build-out infrastructure to improve healthy living in our community. Please spread the word. Ideally I wish to submit 1000 signatures by May 8th. Some “concept” photos are shown here.

I'm excited to officially open registration for our upcoming player development sessions in the Bancroft and Barry's Bay area.

Elite Path Soccer is designed to provide players with high-quality coaching in a positive, energetic, and enjoyable environment. Sessions focus on technical development, tactical understanding, confidence, decision-making, and helping players become more complete footballers.

I bring experience from England, having achieved my FA Level 1 and Level 2 coaching qualifications through West Ham United and coached at U16, U18 and Reserve Team level within the National League South and Isthmian Premier Division.

Sessions are 60 minutes in length and are suitable for players of all abilities who are looking to improve their game while having fun.

Below you will find:

• Registration Form & Membership fees
• Terms & Conditions

Please complete and return the registration form as soon as possible to secure your place, as numbers may be limited to ensure a quality coaching experience for all participants. Payment details will follow. But remember, we are still running free taster sessions for all to attend!

I look forward to working with players from across Bancroft, and Barry's Bay helping them develop both on and off the field.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. 

See you on the pitch! ~Rob Hardy

Two fine matches against two fine teams. August 10, 2025 was a 7-2 win against Haliburton followed by a 4-0 victory against Bancroft on August 17, 2025.

The Blacks ended the season undefeated with a 31 goal differential. Remarkable considering they had no access to a full field this summer. Thanks for the memories and to Mytch and all who organized and participated in the Tri-County League!

Our History

After a winning season in the Bancroft League we decided there was enough momentum after 4 years travelling to Bancroft and Pembroke to create our own Barry's Bay Soccer League and cultivate further our local talent and our spirit of community and healthy athleticism.

So we are again holding our own 7v7 soccer league from spring to autumn and a 5V5 in winter with 4 teams, open to everyone of 13+. We invite you to be a part of this great expression of the valley's spirit.

Sponsor Opportunities

Sponsorship is open to local government branches or projects therein desiring healthy community exposure, open to local firms and organizations -- that reflect the league's mission and T.O.S (terms of service) to promote healthy family life, fair play, and the building of a culture of life to which sport is integral. Please contact me directly

I hope we can work together to make this league year fulfilling to all involved.

Join us in 2026!
