The District Develpment Centre was established in 2007 in partnership with BC Soccer and their model for player development.

The game of soccer has seen unprecedented growth all levels throughout the world, including Canada. However, the game within British Columbia provides a number of unique challenges to the overall delivery of development programming. Challenges such as the addressing of the geographical make up of our Province and the harmonization of player and coaching development are continued priorities to the Technical Department and its mission. The establishment of a recognized structure for the development of the game and it’s participants within British Columbia are a key components to this strategy. The creation of this structure will assist the Technical Department in becoming more efficient and progressive in implementing its Province wide Player, Coaching and Officials Development programming.  In addition, it will offer all participants within the game a clear understanding of the path of development and encourage their continued participation for years to come.
