LSSE and SSA are proud to announce...
Due to the generous support of Living Sky Sports and Entertainment Inc. (LSSE), one Saskatchewan Soccer Association (SSA) Member Organization or Club will have the opportunity to be crowned Soccer Town Saskatchewan and to win $5,000 towards field or facility upgrades or maintenance or equipment!
Now is your chance to show your organizations support and demonstrate the growing excitement in your community for a Canadian Premier League team coming to Saskatchewan!
Let us know why you love Soccer and what makes it the most popular game in the world!
Show us what it means to Soccer in Saskatchewan, your organization, and your participants to have a CPL team in Saskatchewan!
Tell the province that your organization SUPPORTS A SOCCER STADIUM IN SASKATOON!
“This is the beginning of a long partnership with LSSE. Having a professional team in Saskatchewan is a game changer for our sport. Seeing professional soccer played in our own province will inspire our athletes, with some even having the opportunity to play professionally at home. It will encourage more kids to play and increase possibilities for officials to develop their skills. We couldn’t be more excited for this opportunity and for what is to come. We are proud to be supporters of LSSE and the Stadium Project in Saskatoon.” Doug Pederson, Executive Director, Saskatchewan Soccer Association
“LSSE is honored to join SSA in support of Soccer Town Saskatchewan. This wonderful initiative will benefit a club or organization in the province with funds to enhance the soccer infrastructure or equipment needs in their community - and that’s a good thing,” said LSSE founder Alan Simpson.
Simpson added, “As the game of soccer continues to grow world-wide with Canada and Saskatchewan being no exception, LSSE is hopeful that we can bring a professional team to the province. We believe a pro team will give our local players who aspire to play professionally the opportunity to play at home, and just as importantly, our Saskatchewan fans of the game a team of their own to cheer and support.”
