Welcome to Pitchside Kamloops, your go-to source for the U17 National Soccer Finals, happening this fall right here in Kamloops! As the nation’s top young talent hits the pitch, we’re bringing you exclusive coverage, behind-the-scenes stories, player interviews, and everything in between — straight from pitchside. Whether you’re a local supporter, family of a player, or a fan from afar, Pitchside Kamloops is your front-row seat to the action. Join us as we celebrate the future of Canadian soccer as well as everything else Kamloops has to offer for the tournament. Each October, Canada Soccer’s National Championships bring together the country’s top clubs across six divisions and three host cities. In 2025, the action is spread coast to coast: St. John’s will host the adult Challenge Trophy and Jubilee Trophy, Charlottetown will welcome the U-15 Cup, and right here, as the road to silverware runs through our very own Kamloops, we’re proud to host the U-17 Cup — showcasing the best boys and girls teams from across the nation.
